I like living in the suburbs.
I grew up in the "country" as a kid. I grew up in rural New Jersey in a town that still has a population under 2k people, has no stop lights, no police department, and no fast food. This sounds great to some people but it it was just utterly ridiculous - There was no choice, and if you wanted anything you had to drive. We had a grocery store but for anything else we had to drive thirty minutes, and even then the selection was limited. The nearest movies was an hour away and because of this we rarely went.
I love the suburbs. I have a Target department store two blocks away, thirty or forty restaurants in a five mile radius, and everything in the world I could ever want (except for a bike shop). Anything else I need is in the next town.
