I have never owned a car and don’t plan to, because I have always lived in very dense cities and only intend to live in very dense cities. Life is unbearable to me elsewhere. The bus, subway, and taxis have worked fine my entire life. Do you know what you’re missing?
- hitpointdrew 5y agoYep, I do know what I missing. Loud noises, crowded streets, crappy air. I’ll take my rural life, with mountains, and woods, and right-to-farm property 100 times out of 100 over the high stress life in city any day.
- orhmeh09 5y agoNo thanks, I like walking places.
- hitpointdrew 5y agoPlenty of places to walk in the country, lots of hiking trails where you don't have to worry about getting hit by car, or having some jackjass bump into you. And if you do pass a person out in the country, you would actually say "Hi" and not just walk by as if they didn't exist.
- orhmeh09 5y agoWhat mean by that is walking to amenities — shops, restaurants, bars, galleries, theaters, sports centers and the like. Walking to work, too. You don’t need to worry about how you’re going to get home after drinking or whether you’ll find a ride share to take you all the way out to the snowed-in countryside where your house might be. Cities are where you change the world.
