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.
Cities are “designed” extremely poorly, so you are right to hate them. I am finally back in the country and living more rurally than ever, and it really is great. I hope you get to experience it too sooner rather than later.
