and you didn't have to consider other extenuating circumstances...
-
I vote city but much smaller city than where I am.
-
Suburb!
-
City
-
Suburbs! I am definitely not a city girl.
-
Rural with BIG city near by. I like my space but j love everything the city has to offer.
-
With a child I'd choose suburb. If we were child-free then city.
-
A walkable suburb that's VERY close to a big city. Like subway/T close, not commuter rail, with lots to walk to still.
Or city but with lots of money for a big home with a yard and potentially private schools. Can I have that?
-
I voted city but specifically a small city. I live in a small city, and I love it.
-
Love my walkable, super outdoor city!
-
I voted city but really I want to live in a small city, not NYC where I am now. I want to be somewhere that's , still walkable but with a house/yard. I grew up in a college town like that!
-
I would love to live in a more chill, yet walkable city with natural beauty like Portland
-
Not sure! My neighborhood now is half suburban/half rural. I love passing farms to get anywhere. So peaceful! However, I used to live in a town where everything I could possibly want was a mile walk away or closer. I miss that. I wish I could live in a little town, in a surbuban housing plan, surrounded by farms. I want it all!
ETA: Or I would just live full time in an RV travelling the country, but I am not cut out to homeschool C.
-
City! We may have to move to California and I am DREADING living in the 'burbs.
-
If I had mad dough I would live in NYC given I can afford the space! Then I'd have a beach house out east, and cabin up north
-
Love living in the country.
-
Rural. Then I could hopefully have a farm and we could raise our own food.
-
Rural. I can't imagine city or suburb living, our neighbors are too close as it is. We need a couple acres for horses (for our horse obsessed daughters and myself), steers (beef), pigs (pork), chicken (eggs), and enough room for a shop and room to ride quads (Husband, and kids!).
-
@snowjewelz: I like how you think! Haha!
I would love to have a house in the city. Lots of space and walkable to everything!
-
Like others, a rural area with access to a nice city.
-
City! I grew up in a small town and can't go back to that lifestyle!
-
I voted other ... I love living in a small town and wouldn't want to live anywhere else!
-
Always lived in the suburbs so that's what I chose. However, I love our farm, but it's far from a major city which makes things a bit complicated when it comes to going to an Asian store or wanting ethnic food.
-
My ideal would be a house with a yard in the city.
-
I'd like to be in the country, 10-15 minutes from a decent sized town. That's a big part of our 10 year plan.
-
In my dream world, I live in a Chicago suburb but Chicago is much closer to NYC.
-
We just moved to Chicago and we're loving it. But ideally I'd say a suburb that is walkable/ has good restaurants and stuff to do, that's close to a city. That's where we'll probably end up eventually.
-
I grew up in the burbs, but I love love love small-city living! I really enjoyed living in Cambridge, MA and Providence, RI. Some of the best years of my life!
-
i love big exciting cities, so i am tempted to pick that, but i would also want a big house and yard on a quiet street. so perhaps a suburb that you can walk to the city in 10 minutes would be nice!
-
Stick me in the middle of the country with corn fields surrounding me and overlooking land and I'm a happy girl. However, there has to be a town/city with a target/grocery store/ect. within 20 minutes
-
I would love a city condo with a communal playground. I hate yardwork with a passion, I'd rather be able to walk to stuff, etc.
-
Beach!
-
@looch: yes! Maybe a small(ish) city by the beach.
-
@Ms. RV: This is exactly where we live and I love it. A little town surrounded by farms - I'm in a subdivision with a corn field in my backyard ... I'd go more rural for my next move but I'm happy with this compromise for now. I grew up in a big city and I will never go back.
-
City...there's an energy and sense of excitement when I'm out walking among people vs driving to get just to the basic services (groceries, dry cleaning).
-
@Foodnerd81: this is our current situation, it's pretty good, but I'd rather be in the city.
@lilyann: this!
-
We live rural on the outskirts of a small city (and with a few other small cities within 30 miles) and it's a great compromise.
-
Suburbs! Less traffic and craziness than the city (and more space) but still close enough to the city to take advantage of everything that it has to offer.
-
Rural. Give me 10 acres and horses.
-
I like a rural-feeling suburb.
