I've lived in the city for my entire life. I hate the all the people ontop eachother, litter, noise, smells, dysfunction, snobbishness, traffic etc. I don't understand how seemingly most people want to move in the opposite direction. No, they are not hotbeds for muh crime wave and no, I am not paranoid or racist. The only time where the city is more or less livable is during summer break when half the population is being a plague somewhere else.
I can't wait to gtfo of here and live somewhere rural. Preferably somewhere so boring that it sees minimal tourism.
fuck cars fuck landlords
I hate the reality of american cities; mostly parking lot, constant car noise, little public green space, high housing costs, car centric sprawl.
But I'll take it over suburban sprawl where there's zero sense of community outside of whiteness and the HOA and the only way to get anywhere past your block is to hop in a car and drive for 30 minutes.
I've lived rurally and definitely see the appeal. There are definitely downsides but I don't feel like typing them out rn.
