Considering just how much they didn't know about the city, I think it's just normal for them to only update people at annual gatherings or something.
You’d be surprised at how common this is in Asian cultures. I’m Korean and my family and I live in America. They didn’t tell my dad that his brother died until a week after the funeral. He was so pissed. But the mentality of Asian culture is to “not cause trouble for others”, especially if they live far away.

Another example, The Farewell (2019 movie), not telling a grandma that she has terminal cancer so she can die in peace and not feel like a burden to the family.

Dammmnnn... I am Korean, my family and I live in Canada. We call our relatives around once every 1-2 months, and our Korean relatives tell us about big events ASAP....

You’re lucky, I’m guessing the culture is shifting more towards openness, or maybe your relatives are just really close with each other compared to most.
