I dont like how they didnt back up their claim with data. they never showed that people in the suburbs were actually more unhappy than people in the cities. I only saw anecdotes on commutes. And hey, I feel them. I myself only choose places that I can walk to work, its what I prefer.
some sources say that people in cities are less happy than those in smaller cities or rural areas.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2018/05/17/people-who-live-in-small-towns-and-rural-areas-are-happier-than-everyone-else-researchers-say/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2018/05/17/peopl...
Others say different:
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-06-29/u-s-millennials-find-happiness-in-cities-not-small-towns https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-06-29/u-s-mille...
and then further bloomberg articles say the opposite. This is why I was particularly disappointed with their last point. Or is what it is saying is that once you take away the commute, cities loose handily in happiness?
