[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in the suburbs, lived in NYC for ten years for college until my late twenties, then moved to westchester when I was expecting my first child. I didn’t want to deal with cramped apartments with small kids and all their gear. I didn’t want to deal with cut throat competitive processes to get my kids into nursery school and beyond. I didn’t want to drag car seats in cabs, or strollers down subway stairs. I wanted a lower pressure lifestyle with kids. My neighborhood is walking distance to our town, and it’s only a five-ten minute walk to Starbucks, Dunkin, several coffee/bagel shops, restaurants, drug stores, a park and several pre schools. I feel like it’s definitely been the best choice for my family. I loved NYC when I was living my child free twenties lifestyle, but the suburbs has been better for this next phase of life. [/quote]
