City vs Suburbs?

Ok time for a new poll. You were all very helpful in deciding who was more annoying, Kerry Katona or the Smug Car Giant man. But if you thought that was difficult...I've got a new one for you.

Where would you rather live:

the buzzing city



or green suburbia?



City life is fun, there's always something to do - bars, clubs, theatres, galleries, restuarants, museums. But what about the leafy suburbs? They have their plus points too - more space, less noise, friendlier people, cleaner air, cheaper cost of living. And I hear they have restaurants and bars too?!

My ideal is to live out of London, but still close enough to hop on a train. What do you think? Take the poll!

I think this StickGirl in the city is being converted to the surburbs...

    surely it depends on
    1. which 'burb you're talking about
    2. how old you are
    3. what you like to do in your spare time and
    4. where you work.
    choice is sometimes a luxury. Perhaps a pied a terre and a house in the country is the answer?

    hum...yes you're right.

    But it's only hypothetical, so if choice WAS a luxury, what would you prefer?

    Hello Stick Girl

    I think I'd have to vote for a third option - deepest darkest countryside with just a local pub and little post office for company.
