I've lived in the countryside. I've lived in the city. I've lived in the 'burbs aka "white people are gangstas in this 'hood...pahtna!!"

City > Anywhere else

Anywhere else = boring

So says the math guru...don't get it twisted.
 
Not a huge fan of cities. Too many self-absorbed rude d-bags.
 
Without the city, we wouldn't get R. Kelly's biggest smash hit.


 
I've known a fair amount of country folks. Most of them grew up to be jackasses. Most even grew up on a farm.
 
I grew up in a country bumpkin place and I swear I will never live in a place like that ever again!
 
I grew up in the burbs. As a teen, I didnt know if I wanted to live in the country or the city. My few two years of college were at a little school in Wisconsin.

I hated it.

In grad school I took classes in and around Chicago. It was awesome.


Cities win.
 
Having spent quality time in both, I can testify that there is no truth to "southern hospitality" or the general idea that people are nicer in the country.

There are nice people in the country, as are there a-holes. There are a-holes in the city, as are there nice people.

Being as cities have things to do tho, I prefer cities over country.
 
People who live in the city live longer except for when they don't. It's a fact.
 
I lived in THE City. It's cute when you call yours a city too.
 
I grew up in the suburbs. It was quiet, peaceful, everything was in bicycling distance, and we were close enough to the bigger city (15 mins) that we got the best of both worlds. I lived in the downtown area of the big city for a couple years and while it was sweet to be able to drunkenly stumble home from the bar in 5 minutes, it was too noisy and there wasn't enough parking.

My ideal life is living in a mountain town that has a bigger city nearby.

I've lived in cities, suburbs, the country and on military bases. Military bases were the best although suburbs are a nice compromise. Cities are okay but they are often crowded and traffic prone. The country just sucks. It takes too long to get anywhere, the people I knew were mostly just ignorant, arrogant and hostile or faux-friendly where the moment you turn your back they are gossiping about you if not trying to take a stab at you.
 
I find it's best to live on the edge of a city, so you enjoy the quieter life, but you have something to do on the weekends.
 
I used to live in Oakland. I think I'll stick with the suburbs for now.
 
I don't know if I'd consider Oakland a city. I'll call it the ugly sister of the more attractive sister standing next to her.
 
Fixed indeed. Must be children of an interracial relationship as well.
 
I'd say the ugly sister of the more attractive transvestite brother standing next to her.
 
Oakland is a city the same way Apokolips is a planet.
