more reason why I fcking loathe suburbs.

Agreed. I'm all for a suburban tax.

Uhhhhh . . . NOT!  You can never get me to move into the city.  Nothing beats living on acres of beautiful land surrounded by 80+ foot tall trees and a stream flowing behind the house.  All the city has to offer is pollution, violence/crime, and poor health.

That's rural, not suburban. I love rural areas as well.

I live 3 miles from what was the worlds largest outlet mall.  hehehe . . . it just so happens that my little piece of rural is in suburbia.    And now . . . I've found 23 acres 2 hours South of me which is truly rural for chump change.    Right on the water, covered with trees.  Once I find out if there has been any test wells dug on it, I might put in a bid. 

Gotta love VA!

Blame the farmers for selling their land, not those who chose to live in the 'burbs.  Besides, like I said earlier. . . it's more healthy for you to live outside the city than it is inside.

Not at all. In the city you have to walk to get around...In the suburbs you just hop in your SUV and go to McDonalds. I saw a study that people in the suburbs are less healthy then city dwellers.

Not really.  In the cities, public transportation is much cheaper and reliable than it is in Suburbia (hence the reason why people tend to drive out here).  However, people walk, job, bike around town in Suburbia just as much as they do in the cities.  It all boils down to personal habbits.  However, I will make the argument that Suburbians are probably in better mental health than those from the cities (minus the stress caused by commuting . . . depending on how far they live from work).
