How big?
How many people in a city do you prefer? I like cities with no less than 80 thousand and no more than 300 thousand.

1. I like a town big enough to have some good restaurants,
a vibrant music scene, things to do on the weekend besides fishing in the farm pond, a thriving business community, festivals, and the convenience of being able to get most anything you need within a short drive. I live in Dayton, Ohio and I think we have a population of about 200,000 people, but I'm not completely sure about that. Sounds right, though.

2. Deserted island.
With full electrical and plumbing facilities, of course.

3. At the moment, I'd like to live in
a town of 5 (my family). Ask me when I'm not stressed out of my mind and I'll tell you I'd like to live in the suburb of a midsized city. I go to Oklahoma City a lot- I'd like to live in one of the suburbs.

My city is about 30,000, which would be nice if we were closer to a larger city.

4.  I could be anywhere!
I have lived in the suburbs of LA, grew up in a small town in Maine, and am now living in a town of about 16,000 in CT. I just work and go home over and over, so it doesn't even seem relevant as to where I live these days. I could be anywhere at this jucture in life!

Oh shit, my whole paragraph got wiped out--fucking Vista! I forgot what I was saying, so this post is a lot shorter than it was originally.Oh well!!

5. I like to visit big cities but, I like living right outside of a city of about
40,000. That is the city proper; the metropolitan area is about 350,000.

6. I think my town is just big enough. The population is
just about 200,000.
