I don’t tend to agree. I think farmers are more secure being close to the earth.
I agree with you.
I’m a country gal.
I favour the country and would hate to live in a big city.
i heard suicide is high among farmers. dont know, personally, more to keep you entertained in the city, but more peaceful in the country.
I think city people who enjoy cities are happier than country people who wish they were in a city. I was miserable in the country. But I think that is very individual and depends on each person and their preferences. Cities have greater access to mental health care.
As far as aggression goes, I think suicide is more responsible than murder. But then suicide does not consider sizz responsibility to others.
That could be because they can’t make the payments on their loans, and their property is being foreclosed. I don’t think you can make generalizations like the one on this site. I mean, are you talking about wheat farmers? Ranchers? Raising hogs? If farmers are depressed it is probably because they can’t meet the payments on their loans.
A hog and corn farmer I knew also worked a job in the city.
Country boy here. In fact I think moving to a big city aged 18 contributed to the onset of my illness
I heard the opposite lol Nature makes us more happy.
I’ve been city, I’ve lived on a farm, and now I’m a townie. City dwellers have struck me as the most miserable of the bunch. Farmers are generally happier than city slickers. Townies are in the sweet spot: We’ve got most of the services but without the pollution or crowding.
The more people that like the city. Means more country for me.
I have lived in the city, I have lived in the suburbs and I have lived in the country.
Country boy here, for evermore.
I grew up in the country and hated it. I much prefer city life
I’ve lived in the city… and I’ve lived on a farm. I used to prefer the city but not anymore.
I grew up on U.S. military bases all around the world as a kid.
As a teenager, I moved to a medium sized Midwestern city.
After college, I moved to a large Western city and I loved it.
Then, I moved to the country in a Western state and just hated it. I was extremely suicidal while there.
I moved back to the Western city and remained suicidal so I returned to the medium sized Midwestern city where my depression slowly improved.
So, I am definitely happier in a city.
Love living in the city!
you’re more likely to get robbed in the city. I used to work in a big city and remember the druggies trying to intimidate me into giving them money.
Growing up I always liked and preferred cities. But I’m a town boy through and through. I’m quite fond of my town now. This wasn’t the case growing up.
I’m only 20 minutes from London via the train.
I am not happy here , I want to move out of London but even that is expensive.
England sure is nightmare for housing costs. I feel the same about my future.
Houses in this area (North Hertfordshire) are on average 350,000. That’s not feasible on lower incomes which is what I’m destined for.
Yeah houses in London are overpriced for what is offered. My mum and dad paid £45,000 for this home many years ago from the council and it’s now about £560,000
