In my city (Seattle), you never know if a mob is going to set up a month-long occupation outside your building, whether unregistered sex offenders have set up camp in your doorway (can't roust them), every road puts cars first, and the school is removing gifted programs for being racist. I'd love to live in a safe, well-managed, urban city. I don't believe any exist in North America.

- lotsofpulp 5y agocoryrc should have stipulated one more condition - the weather is temperate enough to survive living outside.
- malermeister 5y agoThere's no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothes.
- lotsofpulp 5y agoThat is a fun saying, but I have been to Montreal in February and I would give myself much better odds of surviving outdoors in Seattle than Montreal.
- malermeister 5y agoI come from a place that gets colder than Montreal, but I see your point. Temperature is very subjective and Montreal might be very harsh to someone that grew up some place warmer.
- lotsofpulp 5y agoIt is not that subjective. It is simply more probable to survive as a homeless person (not a person prepared to camp, a person without means to properly clothe themselves or a drug addict or otherwise mentally unwell) outside in Seattle than Montreal. It barely ever snows in Seattle, the temperatures do not go below freezing, and there is low humidity so there is less heat loss hence it feels much warmer than the same temperature in Montreal.

- milkytron 5y ago> Denver? How does Denver fit in with the other two? I currently live in Denver, and have also lived in NYC and Jersey City. The latter seem like completely different worlds from Denver.
