Where you live: Urban, suburban, rural, remote, or Canada.

[Fajita Jim]

I'm suburban, almost rural. I've lived in some big cities, though. Too much busy for me.

[Blargo]

Suburban.




... In Canada.

I live in a drug neighbourhood (not kidding) Im counting the days to leave this s°it behind. Im tired of fights, dirt, noise, drunk people... and im tired to have to leave my house with a knife in my pocket and a kobutan in my key ring

Except for the knife part (im against carrying weapons), I know the feeling. But hey, someday we will manage to live in a better place for sure.

Was born and raised in a small rural town. Now living in the city

[Vaxen]

Canada is a separate category?

Lmao are we really that bad?

[Masque]

Very rural. 25 miles to the grocery store, or Lowe's and the stores and restaurants that make up American retail "civilization", not counting the Dollar General.

... I know many may disagree, but Canada isn't really that much different from the US. Been down to the US many of times, there's a lot of places you wouldn't even know the difference...

Dude, stfu! Everyone knows we drive dog-sleds to Tim Horton's and live in igloos;)

Right now, or so I'm told, there are women in New Orleans who automatically looooove Canadians just because we speak French up here! Don't go telling them we're basically Americans who left their guns at home.

Ok, this isn't a "Canada" thread but we were singled out, so I think we deserve some leniency.

Quebecois, as I understand the story, is an older form of the language. When French people got onto boats and went to the New World, they brought their language and passionately protected it.

Meanwhile, French people simply carried on with living their lives and thought very little about the folks who left.

So today, Quebecois is a more ancient and original form of the French language, and Parisiennes look down upon us for being backwoods hillbillies?

Don't take my word for a damn thing though, I think I got an X on my bilingual profile for oral skill. Oral language skills, just to be perfectly clear.

Currently I live in an apartment downtown in a fairly sizable city, so that probably counts as urban. I'm not sure exactaly where the barrier between "urban" and "suburban" but I spent most of my childhood in a residential neighborhood. It was still considered part of the city and not a suburb of the city but it was a lot closer to what people picture when they think "suburban" than what they think when they picture "urban".

[Birds]

A low density residential neighborhood about two miles from the center of the city.

Semi urban.

It's not "civilization" without a crowded freeway or a crack den don't ya know.
