What kind of location do you live in?

I live in the very center of a small city, Boulder, CO.

I live in the metro-Boston area, which I'm saying is "City Central."

Amsterdam is just a small city: about 780,000 inhabitants.

Rural.. soon to be suburbs/village/town outside of large city.

I live in the suburbs of Atlanta.

I live on the outskirts of a large city - not intensely urban, but not quite the suburbs either (we still get regular bus service and have stores nearby). Pretty though.

I can't figure out what *exactly* Brookline is...is is a city, a suburb, or a town?

Pom, could be a suburb.. but a suburb of what?

yeah I've never been clear on whether Brookline is part of Boston or what.

my primary residence is in rural New Hampshire, though the ruralness of the surrounding areas is decreasing rapidly. My secondary residence is in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

man, what a crappy name for a state. The dictionary says it means "big hill".

Toronto, Canada. (Largest City in Canada

Los Angeles

da sticks, but not for long

Suburbs of a large city.

lol Magbast you for sure live in the sticks.

allentown, pa....very exciting place.

I'm not sure how to describe where I live in the above terms. We live in the New Territories of Hong Kong. There is a village outside of the country club where we live aboard our boat. The city is not far away (about 30 minutes) but where we live is a lot different. There is no way I could live in a flat in the heart of Hong Kong.

I live in a very small hamlet. I love it. Fresh air and clean living, no I don't live on Green Acres.

pom - I'd call Brookline a city, even though it doesn't have the density of downtown Boston.

Large city

I put Town or Small City for Somerville. It certainly doesn't feel like a big city to me, and although it may be a suburb of Boston, it's not very suburban.

A residential area in a city. Or maybe a urban suburb? Maybe a medium sized city. Just up the street from gilly.

I would call Davis Square, Somerville a railroad suburb after the pattern of Richmond Hill, Queens or Takoma Park, Maryland, and as opposed to an automobile suburb such as I imagine the survey creator had in mind when using the word 'suburbs'.

Town of about 60,000...Is that big or small?

Maggie: I would say medium/small.

The town I live in right now has about 500 people.

they: I'd die in a place like that...

vos: I'm half dead already... we're moving soon.

they: good for you! (and magbast and yr daughter ofcourse!)

Maggie - that's pretty huge for a town actually. I live in a town of 70,000 and they used to say it was the biggest town in America. Normally, a population that large would be a city. I'm not sure why though - cities have a different form of government - perhaps it's more effective than a town government when there gets to be lots of people.

I live right downtown in a large Canadian city.

romkey - are you sure you didn't look up Wachussetts? Where is there a big hill in Mass anyway? Especially in the eastern part, where one would expect the Massachusetts indians must have lived.

i live in maine which the whole state is really a small town or city.

wow.. I'm the only one that lives in a village. Suddenly I feel lonely

Suburb of 260,000 people to a city of about 350,000.
