Yeah there's such a minimal benefit to living in a city and that benefit is strictly limited to your ability to be a consumer. Personally I prefer it over suburbs though as they are the absolute worst, almost all downside of a city except crime but with no walkability. Still expensive, tons of traffic, $12 margaritas.
Yep. And in a shtf situation the suburbs are only better for the first couple hours or days until all the city folk come crawling out.
Some jobs are limited to cities, like if you want to be a code king and make a ton of money you basically have to be in Silicon Valley. If you want to be a hotshot doctor you can’t just hang out in a county hospital in the boonies.
I’d say country>city>suburb personally, as long as a city is within an hour or so driving. Not even a major city but just something with the city services and stores.
