COUNTRY
I live in the country which is perfect since it is only minutes away from the city.  It is the best of both worlds! :wave:

I've lived in both and I am totally a city girl!!! The country, every 1 knows everything about you, true or not. There is way too much drama in those small country towns. In the city, nobody cares what you are doing as long as you arn't bothering them.  :bunny:

WE love liiving in the country, no neighbors, big gardens and place to walk wioth out getting hit.  And you know whos car is coming from the sound of the motor.

Actually, I prefer a combination of both.  I live on the edge of Cedar Rapids Iowa which has about 150,000 people and my kids live 5 minutes away in a small town.  So I get the best of both worlds.  If I had to choose one or the other, I'd have to take the city.  It's nice always having something different to do if you choose to.

I live here in NYC and I love it. However, there are times when I can not take it. I do go to the country once in awhile, but I could never live in the country. It's good to have a get away though.

I live in the city and thought I would always be a city girl when I was younger. Then I got older and found out I don't want people constantly being around me. I like the space and the quiet of the country. I hope to be able to purchase some land some day out in the country, but still close enough to a city that I can get the things I need and occasionally go to places I want to see.

I grew up on a farm and loved it!  We had chores to do but plenty of
free time.  We had dogs and cats and a horse to play with and lots
of room to run, hide, build forts, play games!

We live in a small town (4500).  Our house is on the edge of town so
I get the best of both worlds.  I can walk out my front door and go for
a walk on sidewalks and bike paths.  If I walk out my back door I can
go for a walk down the country gravel road.

When the girls were young, we boarded horses in the farmer's pasture
behind our yard.  It was perfect!!  Whistle to the horses, walk them
through our backyard to the garage and saddle them up.  We rode
both in town and in the country.

I think I would love to have both! A townhouse in the city and a cottage in the country. Wouldn't it be lovely to spend the weekends in nature where it's beautiful with trees and animals and a lovely breeze sitting on the porch drinking lemonade.Yes, oh yes, but I love the city with the restaurants and the shopping and the hustle and bustle and the cafes and the music and the dancing. Ah yes, the city! I think I may be a little bit country and a little bit rock and roll. :) 8)

Oh I much prefer cities or towns! I have lived in both, country and city/town... I hate not being by everything and everyone, but in the same breath, it was very very peaceful in the country... but I still prefer the city! =)

While the city has all the comforts one would need, I would chose the country. It's quiet, and it's a good way to watch the stars at night because there's not as much light pollution as in the city.  :)
