This is apparently one of the great cultural divides today. I was struck by comments in various other threads in which certain folks seem to regard virtually any American city with fear, so I'm curious: where do people live?
I assume most people know the know the difference between a city, suburb, exurb, and rural area but you can use the Wiki descriptions if you need to.
The BIG city. 12 million in the Greater London area, and I live in Zone 2, so pretty damn busy.
I've lived in cities most of my life, but not one this big. I'm finding that sort of activity level doesn't suit my introversion in the long run, so I'm moving to... rural? Technically, it's within the borders of an exburb, but it's pretty much in the forest. It's basically as far away from the city as you can get while still having a direct artery into it. :lol: I've never tried living with the trees before, and it sounds nice to me after many, many years of skyscrapers.
