When I first saw the question, I thought "bookshelf". I think you can tell a lot about a person by what they read.

From the options, I would say that the music someone listens to tends to reveal a lot about them. Their appearance, clothing, hairstyle...Not so much the type of house as where it is located.

I don't think that a vehicle reveals that much about a person.

All of the above and more. They won't necessarily tell you about their lifestyle, but they *can*. Most personal habits say something about a person's lifestyle in one way or another.

The way they dress, the types of things they like to talk about, their choices in books, sometimes their choice of jewelry, tattoos, hair styles, things like that.

None. You can't assume you know anything about a person's lifestyle based on any of those things.

Nothing can tell you a LOT about a person's lifestyle. Some of the things on the list might be able to tell you a little about their lifestyle, but you still could be wrong.

all - but whether or not someone drives is a big one (from an urban point of view). Energy level for sure tells you about their health and from that the lifestyle comes.

Their house and vehicles. And their driving and energy leval habbits. I doubt that music tastes revel that much. Man, the music industry is WAYYY to fragmented these days, but that mostly affects teenages. I guess I could make a judgement on a teenager based on what they listen to, but eventually they grow out of it. I doubt someones musical preference tells us that much.

Well if someone is into Britney Spears probably is not dating material.

For me it means there's a chance that they've chosen not to drive in order to bike, walk or take transit - and sometimes that means they're environmentally conscious.

Oh, ok. I thought of that, too. There are some other reasons, like my friend used to have seizures and hasn't had one in quite a while, so the doctor gave her the go-ahead to get a drivers license and she is in her 40's. I'm 33 and just now got a permit. Lots of reasons why I put it off. Of course some people I know in real life think that not having a license means I'm lazy. They don't know my background or my reasons, though so *BAH*.  * grin *  * laughing out loud *

Clothes, vehicle and house. I swear that if I get rich ehough to afford designer labels I will not buy them, they annoy the hell out of me.

Everything but type of house and energy level. Sometimes you can't choose where you live and your energy levels change constantly.
