So the various threads on where people prefer to live have me wondering if there's a common theme...

For you folks who prefer living in a big city with lots of stuff to do, would you classify yourself as an introvert or extrovert?

Same for you folks who prefer the country....introvert or extrovert?

I’m an introvert that lives in a city but would prefer to live in the country.

My wife is an introvert that prefers living in the city.

What’s wrong with mid-sized? Not country nor Big city.

I prefer mid sized cities or suburbs. Introvert.

I'm a suburbanite.

I can roll with the Hicks or Hipsters.

This, and I currently live in the country. Will probably never live in another city again. Maybe on a secluded edge of a town of 500 or less...

Nothing at all. The reason I asked the question is that I consider myself an introvert. I just don't like being around large groups of people constantly. Hence why I don't like living in large cities.

I was just wondering if other people's preferences were influenced by the introvert vs. extrovert thing.

I live 45 mins from the nearest town and I’m an introvert.

Extrovert
Country

-I can ride my atv, shoot my 9, buy enough land to own things, build my own on-location gym with the money I save from not paying city real-estate prices, have enough room for my labs to run around, have room to do shite.

Nothing irritated me more than living in a suburb between DC and Baltimore and having next to no room while paying 2k a month in rent.

I live in the city because I refuse to drive more that 15 mins to work. Will move when I no longer have a need for corporate life.

introvert

Need to be within 15-30 min drive of a city.

I'd go crazy with boredom being in a rural area for too long

I'm an introvert and prefer the city. I'd love to have acreage or something outside the city, but I'd probably have to visit often.

I’ve lived in NC, CA, Japan, Connecticut, NJ, LA, and Texas also.

I guess Iraq too, but wouldn’t exactly call that living.

Introvert. Currently live in a town of about 15k, work in the country.

I’m happy with this situation, and I don’t see that changing for the next 20 years or so. Once I have kids that are old enough to drive themselves then I could see a move to the country.

I’m pretty indifferent about it to be honest. Each has its advantages and disadvantages, but since I farm, I don’t feel like I’m missing anything doing it the city living, country working way.

Not sure what I am.... I can be introverted or extroverted depending on the situation. But I am a city guy.

Country. Introvert, but I dont think it matters. Fewer crowds in the country but everybody knows your shite. I think it would be easier to live anonymously in the city.
