I like the country life. I live on a lake and in the summer I get to bike, kayak, canoe, fish, and swim. In the winter we get a lot more snowdays than the city kids.

I just moved to the city, I grew up on a dairy farm. What a huge difference. Its actually hard to adjust. But I'm enjoying it.

I hate the country, but I'm moving to a smaller city for university. I don't think I want to go to university in Toronto... just... no.

i find that smaller rural towns have little or no potential.
there is a lot of boredom amung students,
and i have seen many good friends turn to hard drugs.
im not saying it doesnt happen in the city,
but there is so much more opportunity in the city,
small towns just seem to have no future to me,
unless you want to work on a farm or somewhere that requires little education.

I like.......LOVE the country there are few people and nobody's in a short distance so you have your own space and your own land which means you have acres to sell and you can have your horses out there and have better air and peace and quiet and you are away from society in the quiet of your own solitude and given room to just be yourself and their not all the noise and the consisting movement . It's okay to work inthe city but i love to live in rural areas. this is why people continue to build houses in the rural areas because the people with more money would like to have their own space and get away from the availabilty of places (houses) and to get away from the fast life of the city of the drugs and the corruption the city is where everything happens in any town and the more expensive the further from the city not saying the city doesn't have some mighty expensive places but it's all about buisness downtown not family . Everyone smokes, just my opinion., everyones so close together in the city !! . i hate that possibly the worst place to be unless you are a billionarie and you are only in the nice places or an actor and you are doing buisness again in the city . if that happened in the country nobody's life would interuppted unless the actor was using your house , because it is a lot of land and then you would be getting money from the actor on top of the land and the big house you can build on that land in the country. LOVE IT

I live in the country and I always thought I'd prefer the city. But I don't like the idea of somewhere huge like Toronto. In my village, everyone knows everyone and there are few people with common interests. So I go to school in a city about 45 mins away and it is so much better!

I used to live in a small town in BC many years ago and then I moved to the city.

When I first moved to the city, I hated it. But the last few times I went back the town felt so confining and empty.

I guess I became a city girl.

I moved from a big city like Toronto, actually I lived in North York which is like the suburbs actually. To a small town like Newmarket, small for me. I don't really like Newmarket if I want to get anywhere I have to walk 45 minutes to either the bus station or my school. and there is nothing but homes between them. Back in the city I could go to malls, schools, supermarkets, dollar stores, restaurants in the matter of minutes so I prefer the City

The Owen Sound area is awesome in the summertime. A good majority of my last ten summers were spent up there (and I worked up there the last two summers); too bad I'll only be up on weekends this year... Owen Sound wouldn't be so bad, but Tobermory would be incredibly boring in the wintertime, especially because I no longer care for snow days.

I've lived in a small hamlet (population 200), a small city (population 80 000), and a medium-sized city (population 350 000), and I've been to Toronto enough times (for family). It may just be that it was where I was raised, but I like the small city best. London, although bigger, just has more of one thing, e.g. whereas my hometown has one Wal-Mart, London has like three. It is just a matter of number. The small hamlet has nothing; the nearest shopping mall is an hour drive away (or 100 km away). However, if you love the outdoors, there is plenty enough to keep you occupied (and if there isn't anything to do, you can just relax in the tranquility). Toronto has lots to do, but because I grew up in a small city I'm not very cultured and therefore don't care for cultural events. I don't care that Toronto has a number of live theatres---I'm not into that stuff. I don't care that it has restaurants with every type of cuisine possible; I'm too white to even try a lot of foreign foods. I like visiting Toronto, but I can't see myself living there (especially with the high cost of living). It sounds appealing moving to a bigger city, or moving to a smaller city if you already live in a big one, but the novelty wears off pretty quickly and you just want to go back to what you are accustomed to.
