Living in the city vs. country

I have two houses, one in a big city and one in a rural town. After spending a lot of time in both types, I don't prefer one over the other. Although, I wouldn't want to live in the absolute country, where there is nothing or nobody else in a 30 km radius of your house.

They both have pros and cons. The big city has the smog, traffic, noise, rude people, faster pace of life, higher crime, higher cost of living. The countryside usually has a lack of adequate public transit, less entertainment options (restaurants, concerts), slower pace of life, less education options, further away from emergency services, higher unemployment rates (usually).
 
I need the city. I need to be able to get out and immediately to be surrounded by life.
 
I live in the country 15 minutes from the city. I like that very much because I have the quiet country life and I can go to the Theatre or big city shopping too.
 
I been to big cities and i like them. You can walk everywhere places are so close and you don't have to drive much i don't like to drive that much. Its always something to do.


I live in a semi small area and its boring here nothing to do. The only plus is the houses and u can have a yard.
 
syntax congrats. i watched that show as a kid...phuck now i feel elderly:(
 
The city definitely.

I currently live in the surburbs surrounded by country and if not for D.C. I would kill myself.

What is there to DO in the country? All that solitude and quiet would be suffocating for me.

Sorry, my main anthem is T.I's Live Your Life.

We only got 100 years to live and I'm not gonna spend my youth gazing wistfully for eights at trees and listen to wild animals fornicate.....

I can do that when I retire......
 
Suburban living is the best as you are just close to the city and also have a feeling of country life.
 
That depends. I've been to NYC several times, and I dislike the garbage, and need for public transportation. That city is a bit much for me. I love living my own city though. It's a major city, just the right size, w/ plenty of diversity and stuff to do. There's public transportation here, but most folks drive their own private vehicles. I like that option.

Country/rural life isn't for me.

The surburbs are hell.

They're just endless identical houses with identical families and endless legions of old ladies walking their two dogs.

The monotony of it all has been the subject of many horror movies.

The fakeness of it all is just BLAH!

"Why, yes, Cherie! I absolutely ADORED that apple pie you made for the PTA meeting!"
 
I like where I live. It is not city living. It is not country living. I live against a national forest in a canyon with a river, creek, wildlife, but only about 15 minutes do Pasadena, California and about 30 to 40 minutes to downtown LA. It would be considered suburban living with kind of a resort like quality to it.
 
I have lived in city and country. City is bettah.

Actually, I have lived in rural areas, small towns., county seat towns, small cities, big cities with access to so much.
I still like city best, and it needs to be easily proximate to cultural capitals and education facilities. I like visiting in the country, for no more than a week.
 
Until I'm old, I'll live in the city but go to the country for vacation.

You realize of course that you're no longer on my "Jubbers to Coordinate With During the Nuclear Fallout Zombie Apocalypse" list.

I've just crossed you off. Permanent marker. Red ink.
 
Ive had the best of both worlds at one point in my life. I grew up in suburbia and my family had a ski condo until I was 13 in VT. I can honestly say, I cant stand the country. While I enjoy nature and the tranquility it brings, the city fits my personality quite well: fast-paced and wild.

I guess I agree that it does not need to be the REALLY big city. But I am kinda confused that someone would say that needing your own car to get around is an advantage.
 
I am a city guy, i like noises, pollution, stupid people, and everything...

SO yeah I'd rather live in a Big city
 
I hate living in the country. To quote Dylan Moran, although you're less likely to experience violent crime in the country, you're also less likely to experience sex, coffee or conversation. It's fuckin' gash man. It's alright for a visit, but I need the city. I need noise, pollution, pubs, clubs and an abundance of cock. The country has none of these.
 
I need both. Growing up we never went on vacation we always had a cottage on a lake and I would spend my summers in the country. I always say once I win the lotto I will buy a big ass house in the country with lots of land and a swimming pond, and a Condo in the city. As for the suburbs, god no shoot me before moving me to the burbs. I like living in the city. I live in the center of the city now I am within walking distance to two subway lines and a bus stop outside my door that has me downtown in 15 minutes. I could not live in the burbs where you are either in an hour of traffic morning and night or public transit takes between 1 hour and 11/2 hours to get downtown. No thanks not for me.
