Different people crave different things in a place to live. Big metropolitan cities have a certain allure to many. They're exciting, happening, and full of intersting people.
One of my goals is to put myself in a situation to live comfortably on the North Shore of Oahu in the future, because that's where I want to be.
Gotcha! And I'd like to mention I wasn't trying to be snarky (not to you, just in general).
I've always had a pull away, out into a large unpopulated area and it makes complete sense that some people have the opposite. The hustle and bustle can have it's allure and with that many different people around, things are always interesting. It's night that gets me. I love stepping out into a clearing on a star filled night with no noise besides the bugs and my own feet in the leaves.
