[quote=Anonymous]+Another vote for suburbs. I grew up MC in a normal place in the south/midwest but went to an elite college with lots of kids from the "top" schools in NYC and was wholly unimpressed. On the whole, they are a very jaded and entitled bunch. Moved to NYC after college and always swore up and down I would never want to my future kids to grow up there. Even before the current craziness and QOL issues took hold in the pandemic, the amount of noise and concrete was too much for me, let alone a toddler. Raising my own kids now in the suburbs which certainly aren't without flaws but the access to nature, sports, and strong public school system (no admissions BS that starts in pre-school) was what sealed the deal for us. We can always come in twice a year to go to a museum or see a show. [/quote]
