Suburban playgrounds are way better than urban ones and the rest of your examples require a lot of money. I'm biased because I grew up in the suburbs, but playing sports outside for free like I did as a kid sounds much better than having to get job because the only thing you can do in the city outside of your house is pay for "culture" at "coffeeshops, more live music, more social clubs, more classes, more museums".
- jacobolus 7y agoNo, you are misunderstanding me. There is more of pretty much everything within a kid-accessible distance in the city, including tons and tons of free stuff. There are more and better parks and playgrounds. There are more publicly accessible athletic facilities. There are more and bigger free public libraries. The amazing museums have regular free days for residents, and zoo/aquarium/museum passes can often be checked out for free from the library. There are more free art exhibits. There are more cultural festivals. There are more special-interest meetup groups.... Plenty of city kids play pick-up (or organized) sports outside for fun for free every day.

- tathougies 7y agoCoffee houses are often free to sit in. Social clubs also often hold free events. Live music is often outside. Playgrounds and museums tend to be free or low cost
