my house is the little white speck in the middle of the pine trees.
middle of the woods
Suburbia Hell.
I reside on one of the corners on a 5-way intersection where, if I'm here, I hear cars and people pretty much all day and night. There's pretty much some sort of business on each corner. I couldn't have it all quiet and shit...I love the noise lol.
So, it's city/suburbs, more suburban in my area. But, my city is pretty damn big, and right next to an even bigger city of much historical value.
Yeah i was there over the summer for a little while... long story but it was a road trip... we stayed at march arb... off of cactus by the carls jrQuote:

suburbia, but i think im headed for middle of the woods soon.
Yeah dude I live in a former predominantly-white town that was really quiet and peaceful. Lately, a lot of people from Newark, a nearby MAJOR city in Jersey, have been moving in. There was a driveby 2 blocks away from my house, some guy was found dead in a trunk rotting away about 45 feet from my house, the people across teh street from me (literally like 30 feet) had people break into their house and tie them down to chairs while they stole all of their posession, a couple that had newly moved into a home got robbed and shot (1 week after moving in) and they both died, the neighborhood teens are all 'ghetto' and 'gangster' and assholes that fuck with everyone, especially the old people or me (i have a pretty big mullet and i get a lot of shit for it)
It's horrible, but I still walk around the streets and the nearby park (about 2 square miles and a lot of people get assaulted, robbed, and even shot there), when I'm high/drunk. I never had a DIRECT problem with any of this delinquancy, but it shure as hell happens close to my house, damnit!
But there is a LOT of weed around this area...weed and yak. The weed is pretty good, there's all types, but I dont' see much 'dirt' weed, there's a lot of piff/haze, hydro, some sour d, and a few other strains or variants. It's pretty good :). Wish it was as cheap as it is in texas though..
Oh and a dead baby was found burried (had it's leg sticking out of the dirt) by a church 2 blocks away from my house too.
I live in a place with an identity crisis. 30 years ago, it was nothing but a sprawling suburb, where the business district was formerly filled with porn and pawn shops.
Today it's an dense surburban/urban city. A place where McMansions are right next to 1-story houses, because there is nowhere to build but up. It's where a historic car dealership was torn down for another modern building. A place that has lost it's roots. The roads inadequate to the current population. An environment where people are cold, money and power rules. A liberal stronghold in a law & order state, who have no bearing on social issues.
It's also a place that's ideal to live in. Right next to DC. Live near the metro. Consistant employment. Environmentally and biker friendly. Lots of rec & park.
I use to hate it, but the longer I live here, the more I discover there is some charm about this place, despite the cold bastards out there.
