Meh. To each their own. Beauty is on the eye of the beholder. The giant forests of steel, glass and concrete in Manhattan are quite beautiful to me, along with everything else that comes with it: It's bridges, the subway, the people, its restaurants and bars, etc. etc.
- KGIII 9y agoIndeed, it is entirely subjective. I speak only for me and can only share observable trends. I do see the appeal of urban living and I can find beauty in the structure. What I really appreciate is the combination of aesthetics, tranquility, and privacy. On the subject of privacy, I am able to be more private in my location than I am if I lived in a city. However, the trade off is anonymity. I can be much more anonymous in an urban area. Definitions follow: I can pee on my lawn and nobody will know. If I pee on someone else's lawn, they will know exactly who I am. I'm not a hermit, I have an active social life and a girlfriend. But, I do enjoy the solitude and tranquility. I also enjoy the furry woodland critters and the lifestyle that I can have here. (I can't really hunt moose in Manhattan and it's doubtful that I'd see one on my lawn.)
