ReplyDeleteYay for city living! There are lots of great things for us as individuals and as a family about where we live.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure I'm convinced, but my wife would agree 100%. I think the view of the skyline was one of the major selling points for her on the new condo. I'd be happy with a yard instead of a park, but at least we will have a 100+ acre park right outside our front door.
ReplyDeleteI love city living. I grew up in the picturesque burbs, and you know what? it wasn't so great. I guess we'll see how we feel when it's time to enter the BPS lottery, though!
