Where I live is a cross between nowhere and the suburbs. Think of a country road with gravel driveways, lots of woods, and old houses spread apart with the occasional "new" house. That's the kind of setting I live in. Oh, and my town is about 3 years old, while I've lived here for 15 years. ;)

Small town - approx 10,000, we are the county seat for the county, which is mostly rural /agricultural. We have two liquor stores, one hospital and 99 to 115 churches depending on which directory you use. I'm thinking that might include the entire county.

OK, brace yourselves.

 

My university dorm (where I am at the moment) is in the middle of a campus of 30,000 in the middle of a city of 300,000. My actual home is a 2.5 acre "mini-farm" (that's what Mom calls it anyway) in a small residential neighborhood surrounded by farmland. It's not the middle of nowhere, but the closest "recognized" town is 2 miles down the road - 2 gas stations, 2 stoplights, no liquor stores (dry county ;) ), an elementary school, about 6 churches, and a bunch of houses. However, even though it's closer, that town isn't in our address. Technically, our town is 7 miles in the other direction and has a population of about 20,000. I guess that makes it a small town, but it's a great size if you ask me.

 

So, when I'm not living in a medium-sized city, I live next to farmland outside of a small town. ;)

I grew up on a hundred-something acre family farm, but had to vote "small town," 'cause that's where I am now.

 

No stoplights (not even one of those blinking yellow ones), no liquor stores, one bar, two what I would call diners, two gas stations, one real restaurant, four churches that I can think of off the top of my head, three old-folks residences, about eight B&B's, bunches of hole-in-the-wall "antique" stores, one small regular store, a few shops, two banks - all in about one city block - this is large compared to the town where I grew up that DOES have two cautionary yellow lights, but less than half of the stuff I just listed.

 

Population about 3,000 here, and 2,500 in the town where I grew up (Now over 3,000 there, too.) Population - SA-LUTE!

By Canadian standards I would say I live in a major city. By US population standards it would be a small city. I live in Winnipeg which has a population of just under 686,000 people and we are the 9th largest city in Canada. Heck all of Manitoba has a population of under 1.2 million.

I'm on an acreage 10 minutes outside a big city. It's nice. Completely treed and natural, and yet still close enough to hang with friends often.

I live in a small city. It only takes at least 10 minutes to get from Point A to Point B no more than 30 minutes to arrive at other destinations. :bag:

 

The ever growing population makes it a chore at times just to go to the mall or the movies. There are more cars now in my city than there were five years ago.
