I've lived in the city for my entire life. I hate the all the people ontop eachother, litter, noise, smells, dysfunction, snobbishness, traffic etc. I don't understand how seemingly most people want to move in the opposite direction. No, they are not hotbeds for muh crime wave and no, I am not paranoid or racist. The only time where the city is more or less livable is during summer break when half the population is being a plague somewhere else.

I can't wait to gtfo of here and live somewhere rural. Preferably somewhere so boring that it sees minimal tourism.

Choosing between being lonely in a place where everyone just knows you (at least from sight) and lonely in a place where you rarely see the same people twice, I'll choose the latter. Granted I don't live in the US nor in a big city. I lived in small towns until I went to uni, and I wouldn't come back. Maybe for a million dollars.
