If you were looking for a new place to live, would you rather live in the city or the suburbs?
yup.Suburbs with quick access to the city.
If I had the financial means to do it, I'd live in Canon Beach, Oregon. It's a cool little coastal resort town an hour outside of Portland with no corporate presence whatsoever. This picture from our vacation there last year pretty well says why I'd like to live there:

I just visited that town on my trip to Portland last May. GREAT town! Beautiful rainy days on the beach!!
Suburbs aren't "the country". They're small towns and communities surrounding large cities. You always have very quick access to the excitement of city life.I like excitement and though the country is peaceful, I would go stircrazy!
Ahh, so you know exactly what I'm talking about. It's truly beautiful there. I like that it's a quiet little town with only locally owned businesses, too. If you want the corporate stores and restaurants or city or nightlife thing you can always head into Portland, too. If you get that way again, also check out Astoria and Seaside, which are North of Canon Beach. Also cool little towns. There's just something about Haystack and the atmosphere of the town, though, that makes Canon Beach special.

I had some of the BEST pizza I've ever had in my life in that town! And PIZZA's my favorite food to eat when I'm hungriest.
But there was this little restaurant/pub place maybe 30 yards from the pier that went down to the beach. They had the perfect brick(stone) oven, and I enjoyed that slice of Pepperoni in Euphoria as the rains came down!
It was and is one of my three best pizza experiences EVER!
Thats basicly my areaSuburbs with quick access to the city.
