[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Young people frequent the cities until they’re about 30-35. Then they move to the suburbs once it’s time to settle down. This is nothing really new. The middle aged couples with kids who stay in the city to raise their kids to deal with bad schools and crime are truly the selfish ones for wanting to relive their youths when in reality, it’s just sad.[/quote] Truly wealthy people all live in the cities. Sorry you can’t afford that. [/quote] Affordability isn’t the issue. Bad schools, lack of green space, and crime are real factors. I don’t want to have to worry about my 14 year old daughter getting stalked by a creep on the metro. No thanks. People ignoring rising crime in cities to justify how “wealthy” they are and it’s completely laughable. [/quote] Every problem that you list goes away if you have enough money [/quote] Nope. Money doesn’t magically get rid of the crime. Nor the lack of green space. [/quote] There are plenty of houses on large leafy plots in relatively crime free neighborhoods for those that can afford them in almost every city. [/quote]
