I live in the centre of a fairly big town. I grew up in a slightly smaller town.
I quite like rural areas, makes a nice change of scenery especially to smoke to!
I want to live in Central London though, thats where the money is at! :thumbsup:

Grew up in the country, sort of, then move to the city for 10 years or so, now I'm living in beautiful rural setting. I'm a country boy at heart.

I live right on the edge of the burbs and the city. However, I plan on living in a rural community when I graduate from business school. I have always loved the country, and want some land around my house. I don't want to live more than an hour or so from a big city though, just for the convienences.
East London is today an area of regeneration, with a rising population. The redevelopment of the Docklands area began in the early 1980s, and the Thames Gateway project is now extending regeneration further east, with the London Thames Gateway Development Corporation responsible for planning and delivery of the project in East London. London's successful bid to host the 2012 Olympics has kick-started regeneration programmes in the area, and is likely to have an impact on house prices. This has been evidenced in August 2005 where East London was one of only three places in England and Wales to have increases in property prices. [1]
I guess suburbs - coz it's not technically the trading centre [city] of london.

The City, I live about 5 min. from downtown and if you climb onto the roof, you can see the downtown skyline.. I love living in the City cause everything is so accesible, and I probably never leave the City. I did have to move to a way smaller town, Spendora, Tx, pretty much farm country and I had a hard time adjusting to the silence and bein so far away from everything, but I loved it.. it was soooo peaceful.

i live on the edge of Queens. Technically its the city [New York City], it is however one of the most suburban looking area of queens. Only a bus ride away from all the commotion though.
Sort of a mix between Urban and Suburban. I live on the edge of London (next town over is classed as Kent) in a slum. It's pretty densley built up, but there are loads of green areas and shit (South London is like this pretty much all over to be honest)

I live in the 'burbs now, and I've also lived in the center of a city and in a rural area. If I had my preference, I'd live far, far away from the city on a large expanse of land where I could see every star in the nighttime sky and hear absolutely, positively no traffic noise. For now, I'll have to settle for where I am, but it feels too crowded and too noisy, even in the suburbs.

That is exactly how I feel right now..I get so burnt out on the city sometimes..I would love to see every star in the night...every night..not just occasionally..that would be really incredible..
Now, I need to start an internet business..where it dont matter where you live.

I live in the Suburbs. 15 minutes from the city, about 15 minutes from the country. Perfect.

The city, like dead center downtown city. I'm starting to grow weary of it. I want to live in a smaller community where I can still work pretty close to home.
