I've lived in cities and in rural areas and I find that if I spend a lot of time in either, I eventually start missing the other.

Which do you prefer and why?

I live in the city so I like it cause i'm used to it. but i wouldn't mind changing to a peaceful setting.

i prefer suburb life, in an old and run-down suburb like the one i'm in now. there's city in one direction, and country in the other. everything is here where i need it.

I've got the best of both worlds. I've got three corn fields within 1000 feet of my house, and a large college town within a 15 minute drive.

I have small town atmosphere with big(ger) city luxuries within easy reach.

I prefer the big city. It is because I am into doing the things you can do in the city. Eat at a "new" restuarant, go to museums, stuff like that. The country is also ok. That is where I grew up but I was not very much into the outdoors things that they had -- hunting, fishing, etc.

Either the complete solitude of the country or being in the middle of the city. I hate suburbs

Anyplace with pizza joints open until 2am within a 5 minute drive while the college party houses (the ones with a beer bash every weekend) at least 20 minutes away.

City Life.. It has to be somewhat crowded and people must be home. Kind of like the middle between City and Country life, except, more City type :)
