I like the small town better. More people means pollution and that upsets my allergies. Also the traffic, noise, and violence. When I lived in a big city, 3 people were killed in the apartment complex while I lived there. I lived in a relatively safe part of town. In this town, maybe 3 people have been killed in the last 100 years. I am not sure if it is even that high. Here someone stealing a car is considered a major crime spree
