&gt; I just don&#x27;t understand why people would want to live in the suburbs over living in the country or the city. To me, the burbs are isolating and depressing; they are cultural waste lands. I don&#x27;t have to to drive everywhere, or maintain a car and thus I am saving another few thousand dollars every year, its fiscally a no brainer to live in the city.<p>Dude, do you realize you&#x27;re proving my point in spades?<p>Why are you trying to convince me that living in a city is better than in the suburbs? I&#x27;m sure for a lot of people it is. But not for me.<p><i>I don&#x27;t care</i> if you prefer living in the city over the suburbs. But you&#x27;ve amply demonstrated that you <i>do care</i> about the fact that I don&#x27;t. And that&#x27;s my original point. And I find it amusing that so many city dwellers care so much that there are people who don&#x27;t share their preferences.
