Poll: Would you rather live in a city or village?

Why do you not even want to live in a village now but move to the biggest city in the whole country for uni?!

I'm always a little tense when I'm in 'central London' etc. So many people! England in general has loads of people, much more than I'm used to.
London alone has a higher population than my own country! I feel much more comfy in cities like Oxford.

Though I do like London a lot.

what is your own country and what are the main differences between here and there?

I am even more confused than I was before reading this thread. I live in london (love it) there is everything. but I hate that its relatively much expensive and the fact it takes ages to get anywhere a lot of my time is wasted in commuting. I dream to live in a place where everything is no more than 5 mins away from yet it has all the facillities of a good city.

I've grown up in a city and have gone to uni in a city. I would never consider not living in a city; the bigger the better (well until it starts getting confusing). I hate the "relaxed" countryside life, it's so inconvenient and nothing's ever open, plus I've never really heard of a village with a great nightlife, which is also very important to me. I mean, going to a village for a weekend or a week or so might be a nice relaxed "holiday" of sorts but I really couldn't live there for much longer than that. There's just nothing to do.

My friend from uni was saying she lives like a 20 minute drive from the local shop! What do you do if you run out of food?!?! Go yonder into the woods and hunt a boar? Couldn't deal with it.

Basically; I'd rather live in some big and "happening" city and do fun **** than chill in a barn. Just my opinion, tho.

I live in a city. I will NEVER live in a village, what sort of antiquated barbaric idea is that? Cities are the only place to be, full of culture and variety and entertainment. Whats in a village? A pub and the smell of cow poo. I feel sorry for those who wake up and see fields and pigs outside of their window, instead of seeing the city streets.
Not just any city mind, the only one worth living in in the Uk is London

Try an East Asian city.

Are you joking? Have you ever been to the countryside? Don't you ever want to breath fresh air and just escape from the constant buzz of the city, with workers rushing here and there and everyone caught up in the depressed 9 to 5 office lifestyle?

Don't you ever want to experience what the world looked like before we came along and screwed it up?

Great you are so helpful, does East Asian city have a British University

Don't you ever want to experience what the world looked like before we came along and screwed it up? I mean, don't get me wrong.. I love the city, I live in Cardiff, and will probably move to London, but I can still really appreciate the countryside. I could never just stay in a city, and forget about the rest of the world.
