[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For us: Living in a city was great with no kids. Living in the suburbs in a large house on a large lot with a large yard is so much better now that we have kids. Others may think differently. That's the beauty of choice.[/quote] You said EXACTLY what I was about to type. Cities are great for living in an urban setting without kids. But with kids, I can’t imagine living in a city in a crammed condo. I’d rather have some space. The burbs just provide all of that with ease. That’s my main thing. You can’t have your kids playing in an urban setting next to busy roads, no open space to play, all of the pollution, etc. If I’m in the burbs in my house, I can be at a park in a few minutes, then go get groceries from the Whole Foods afterwards, all while being back home and eating all within a span of an hour. I can’t do that In the city because I’m bound by the crappy city traffic and city transportation where this would take 2+ hours. [/quote]
