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.

Most of your complaints about cities are just about cars

I have a tram rumbling by my window every seven minutes. The noise is also the constant construction everywhere, the loudness walking through the train station, inconsiderate people on public transit etc. What you feel in DC I feel when I am blissfully away from the hecticness and stress.
