Somewhere in between. I love living in "Podunk" NH (definitely rural) but would not enjoy driving 40 miles to the nearest grocery store either.

I live on the northside of my city and still think that it is crowded. Traffic, congestion, storm refugees, workers.

That farm up in the country is a nice get away many times.



so - both

Being single plays a role in where we live or would like to live. My town is 19K, looks like it was designed by Norman Rockwell, picture perfect with a river running through it. However, very limited while single. Paws

The town I left in B.C., 4 yrs., ago was 4K. and 5 hours from the nearest city. So by comparison, this is a little better. Paws

I live for the country life. The city is too busy... too many people... too much going on everywhere.. I can't handle it. I live in a small town close to the mountains and I wouldn't be anywhere else. Although it is fun going to the cities... visiting friends... out drinking the city boys who think they're tougher then me because I'm a girl.. cheers

Just heard a statistic that half the earth's human population lives in cities.

Countryside has a soothing effect on me. I prefer it.

Besides, cities look more and more like targets.

I have lived in cities all my life but, in recent years, I have been looking to find a place out in the country. Grow my own food, make my own electricity, etc. I doubt if I will ever live long enough to see this dream come true.

Yes, it does sound very tempting. One doesn't even need a lot of electricity to live there, or clothes. LOL

Sounds like a great goal, and you live in a great area of the world to do it.

Bonne chance et bon courage.

(by the way, recently saw the Quebecois film 'CRAZY' last week in Paris; it's good; it was subtitled in French)

That is the good part about having a few acres of land to yourself.

I'll take it as rural as I can get it.

Where I currently live can only be described as heaven. No one bothers me here at all.

Also, I live next to a state park where a lot of people visit. I don't see them unless I go into the park, so it's like there are a lot of people around especially on weekends yet they don't live here, and it's my choice whether or not to see them.

In addition, I live 20 miles from a small college town. Even that small town is pretty nice. No major traffic or anything like that. No slum district. Just nice people who hold doors open for each other and greet everyone with a smile and a hello.

I'm telling you, I live in heaven.
They only thing missing is an angel in my life. angel
Lord knows I'm a saint. innocent

angel innocent hug
