[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]…and now those kids are grown, [b]have you considered moving back to the city? [/b]

Although I have loved our time here raising our family, now that my youngest is off to college soon, I find myself experiencing increasing discontentment here. I wonder if others who grew up in the city and came to the suburbs to raise a family have felt this way too and what you chose to do. [/quote]

Where is the city? Did you live in the city with your family growing up? or you're just looking for city life after the kids are gone?

I live in Fairfax Co. Suburbs and would love to move back to Arlington but I don't think we could afford anything similar to what we have now. 
We are in our early 50s and I do hate the quietness of our neighborhood.

Then I also think if we ever have grandkids I would not want them to come and visit us in a tiny apartment on the city. I would love for them to come and visit us where we are now, plenty of room and yard space, etc.

Fairfax Co. it's still probably "city" in many aspects, I think if I was nested in the middle of nowhere, I would be depressed and would definitely want to move.
