The Column
Motto: When “Running to the Store” is Literally Possible
I’ve lived in five types of places in my life: 1. In a small town 2. In the country 3. In a small city/big town 4. In a big city 5. In a suburb So far, I’m most a fan of the small city or the suburb. Rather than “write” a lot of subjective bologna about the difference between the different environments I’ve lived in, I’m going to present the case graphically:
| Table of Recreation | Small Town | Country | Small City | Big City | Suburb |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Park | X | X | X | X | |
| Gym - weights | X | X | X | ||
| Gym - basketball | X | X | |||
| Pool | X | X | X | X | X |
| Pool I’d Actually Use | X | ||||
| Pool Table | X | X | |||
| Bicycle Friendly | X | X | X | X |
Top 5: Specific Perks of This Suburb 5. Sits on the interstate I find most useful 4. Excellent representation of places I like to eat/shop without an overwhelming amount of places I don’t 3. A source of potentially career-long employment 2. 10 minutes to the Plaza. 10 minutes to Downtown 1. The name lends itself to puns
