Gresham is a suburb, lower Hawthorne is a neighborhood. That's like saying someone who has a garage in Capitol Hill Seattle lives in a suburb because there's trees

Lol @ "raise your kids in the suburbs" the suburbs are the worst place to raise a kid unless you want a sheltered, emotionally stunted wreck of a young adult who believes that everyone is a white upper middle class homeowner and that ribs from applebees are the height of cuisine

Yes the only choice is a shitbox that will slowly kill you because it is full of formaldehyde from the chinese drywall and "hardwood floors" in a quiet suburb or a tenement in the city. The fact is study after study says poverty in the suburbs along with infrastructure costs are skyrocketing and the cities are becoming more and more popular with the more affluent. The suburbs are basically the new ghettos and everyone knows its it but the buyers that are tricked into a "good deal" on the new shitbox built on a swamp.

Not everyone has a daddy that pays for us to live in a botique condo in the worst city in the US. You realize that dont you? That some (all of us not named Three Olives) of us have to work a job, pay our bills, and make our own way? Given that, I, and most rational adults, make the decision to maximize what's important to us. In many if not most cases, that means buying a detached home in a suburb with a school district that does not doom them to failure, like every single big city school district in the US. Sorry for your inability to understand the way the world works, but congrats on having a dad who does/did

lol to all of the goons in this thread bitching about how stupid suburbanites are when they themselves cannot sort their lives out to the point where they could afford to pay for a house. the jealousy is palpable. fix your poo poo, buy a house, spend your disposable income on tiny plastic spacemen to paint and play with. purchase shelving, you dummy.

Only need to worry if the oil leaks onto the key and 3 point arc I laid down with traffic tape edit: or, alternatively, own a car that doesn't suck. Even the old project truck doesn't leak oil because screwing in the oil pan bolt isn't that complex

i lived in suburbs and some of the most densely populated cities on earth, both had good and bad points, i prefer cities myself but I'd happily go back to a suburb again in a few years., dunno what the poison is about on both sides here. i bet the goons being most vicious about suburbs actually grew up in them and are projecting hard lol.

also if i was drunk enough to end up with sprogs I think bringing them up in a city would set them up for life a lot better, but also the risk of them loving up is much higher so i dunno.

Everyone here is freaking deluded with their life choices. Devil Wears Wings posted:Lol @ "raise your kids in the suburbs" Big city kids can be just as culturally boring and dead. They just happen to know how to, ride trains, avoid getting mugged/stabbed, hit the video game arcade. It's not like they will start liking museums, history, art, and music festivals or whatever. People in Tokyo, New York and LA might dress more fashionable but people can still be as ignorant/boring as anyone else. I enjoyed Washington DC with all it's hipster restaurants and museums, but the residents there can be even more vile and racist in subtle ways compared to your KKK redneck. As for exposure to fancy cuisine or foreign, that's what vacations are for. Or try cooking your own food I guess because your kitchen is big enough, and your fridge is actually big enough to stock up on items. Daily grocery trips loving suck and that's even counting going to some over priced farmer's market. Can't really prep food for bigger crowds and house parties as well. God drat it, give me a Costco

I'll freely admit that I grew up in a suburb and having lived there decided it wasn't for me. No big deal, tried it, didn't like it, did something else that I like better. Pauline Kael posted:Mostly they're jealous of their former peers and or siblings who have gone on and completed their degrees, found a mate, bought an affordable house together, and are proceeding with their lives. Hell hath no fury like a goon, scorned My real gripe is this nonsense like I have some secret desire to move to the suburbs that I won't cop to because there's some screw-up on my part that is preventing me from doing so and that moving to the suburbs it is the only natural and desirable outcome for anyone. I have a mate, an advanced degree, a well paying job, and a life I really really enjoy and am saving up to buy a house in the city, I just prefer living in the city and there is not an ounce of my being that would prefer living in the suburbs. It's really not that big of a deal. You want to live in the suburbs? Cool. Not what I would pick but we value different things, which is totally fine. It's this weird implication that I secretly am jealous of people in suburbs because they "have it all figured out" and spend less money for more space as if whoever pays the least per square foot wins or whatever that chaps my rear end. I'm sure it's the same thing with city folk implying that suburbanites are all anti-culture rednecks that gave up.
