So, how's life in the actual United States? You know, not the one from the movies and TV (for good or worse). Your place, village, town.

Thanks mate, you answered all of my questions.

Unironically the best.

I'm never going back to Canada except to visit.

It's not exactly what I was asking for. I mean more like - what is your place like, how do you see it, how is life to you? How are the roads, houses, towns, cities?

For me, United States is kind of an uncanny valley - all the cities, big towns, little towns, houses, roads; it all look... alien to me. Like it was a huge model of sorts, a map rather than an actual place for people to live.

I live in a town of 3,000+ (2010 census)

Beautiful land, boring copy houses inside most of the town, but we have nice parks and tennis courts.

Nig vs spic racial tensions, however still at tight knit community

3-4 schools, alright roads

Life is good, nearby city is rough and I do not go there, a bit farther is a good tier city

I don't really know how to describe it.

I have a house in the suburbs of a small city on the great lakes near the border. It's more free than Canada, there are less socialist fucktards, my town is really nice but there's also black people who occasionally do black people things.

I dunno man, it's great. Free as fuck.

It's just "eh" I guess?

Live in a flyover state where nothing happens and we never get big national events. Still living at home with my parents, working an office job that I hate, doing nothing with my university degree, virgin sperg. Could be worse I guess.

Are these big? As "oh, I just gotta make a few shoppings in a nearby store, only a 4 hours long march by feet". The States are terribly out of scale for me. Everything is too big, too wide, too far away.

>USA
>walking anywhere
There's much less centralization here, unlike in Yurop.

>where do I live
Town of about 15,000 in Alabama
>how is it
Not bad. Now mind you, I don't make a big splash here so nobody has any reason to dislike me. Bible thumpers abound and some of my gay/bisexual/pagan friends don't like it here nearly as much as I do, but for me life is swell.
Low crime, nice roads, great little suburbs and stuff like that, beautiful scenery. We have a lot of poor people of course but they mostly live on the outskirts of town. We still have buildings standing from the 1800s.

It's top 5 in most positive quantifiers for the state, actually, so my town is probably a bit unaverage, but frankly it is more than alright.

That's a subject for a whole another thread. WHY do Americans consider living with their parents a bad thing? It's cheaper, more economical, you share money, so you can invest and grow ever richer, and you're together as a family. Emotional support and shit.

There are places to buy from everywhere. Corner stores, gas stations, supermarkets, fast food, sit down. We got everywhere to buy from and everyone and their kids have a car.

Gas here is generally extremely cheap. For me it's $1.85 a gallon currently.

You get a fuckload of money but you also kindof spend it fast.

It's really nice as long as you stay away NJ, big cities, southern California etc. The country's so fuckkin' large that's an easy task. Blacks are fine when extremely outnumbered.

In the 50s and 60s the American economy was ridiculously strong and anyone who was anyone could afford a house and car in suburbia and got married by the time they were 20.
That thinking carried over despite a significant weakening of the economy. Parents expect you to get a job and move out.
>tfw 22 and live with grandparents
>no good job in sight

Walking is absolutely not an option. Absolutely not. My hometown was like 6 miles^2

whoa just looked at a map, make that 15miles^2

Personally, I'm 23 and living with my parents AND grandmother, while my sister and her boyfriend are taking care of my great granny in the second apartment. My parents are planning on selling separate flats and buy one big house to house us all tho.

>Parents expect you to get a job and move out
Sounds like hell.

Pretty chill. Pennsylvania here. Work is stressful yet rewarding, but I'm white collar with a political job, still beats hard labor as I used to do. Atmosphere is relaxed in my little town when nothing is on fire or the bums aren't hassling you for smokes or cash. Racially, we're cool here. No one will fuck with you for what you are. Plentiful drugs, nice folks, lots of bars. Just don't talk politics here, it gets heated. No one gives a fuck about religion though, for some reason. Since the coal ran out and steel left, it got a bit hard to get by, but adapt or die. Music scene is better than you'd think.

>Sounds like hell.
It is. Fortunately for me, my sister is the normie one of my parents' two children, so they can fall back on her relative success and not give me such a hard time. They don't seem to mind me staying here even though I'm one of those "failure to launch" manchildren, pic related.

In nj in coscto , a gallon coasts 1.69 dollar . dog bless the usa

finally fucking cooling down, some what

Not the "work" side of it of course, as I actually get one. Not great but brings money I can safe for college (starts in October). Consider this: you're a 18-20 years old shithead, you have no real experience in life but you're more or less forced to take a shitload of loans to get through college, "own" house, "own" car and everything you're told you "need". So then you have to spend the rest of your life travelling all around the country, catching every job possible to pay off your loans and don't starve in the process. So the only real beneficent of your life is... bank.

I live in a small town in Maine and really it's just quiet. I have a long commute to work but it's fine. I like it here in the sticks and tend to ignore the world outside my property. My town has no police but it doesn't need them.

I spent a while in Texas and I thought it was kind of miserable desu.

Everything's to big and far apart, you have to drive for fucking ages to get anywhere and no one's as friendly as I though they'd be.

>My town has no police but it doesn't need them
What town

t. serial killer

>living in AZ

Seriously, who thought it would be a smart idea to build major settlements in the middle of a fucking desert?

>Your place, village, town.
Everyone is mexican including myself
I hardly ever speak in english

Most towns here don't have a police force. There is no need. Maine has the lowest amount of police per capita.

We'd have to move this thread to Sup Forums to discuss such issues.

That sounds nice. I live in a small town myself but its filled with cops, its horrible.
There is no industry or no place to work here so alot of these lowlives became police since they're always hiring

Europe seems the same to us.

I mean, who even has royalty in the 21st century?

That's some fairy tale bullshit.

This

Every single person jn my family of 4 owns their personal car. All SUVs. We have a diesel truck to haul stuff around. Everything is cheap, where i live the women are hot and we have great beaches. I have a huge house that eould cost a fortune on taxes in the EU. Pretty good desu

Pretty comfy.

Weather is always good out here in Southen California.

>what is your place like
I live with my parents in a one story 3 bedroom 2 bathroom home. We have a two story shed in the backyard and our backyard is pretty big for an average home like ours. I like to run laps around our it to stay fit. There is allot of shrubby and wood area there so I feel like I'm not being watched despite living in a suburban neighborhood.
>how do you see it
I consider my family lower middle class. The neighborhood looks nice but most people who live in here are pretty poor. Crime is also a problem here as my neighbor's house got robbed a few weeks ago but all in all life is cozy here. Maybe I don't see it but there doesn't seem to be much racial tension here despite being a very diverse area. I'm Hispanic but I've always seem to get along well with other people, even more than with other Hispanics.
how is life to you?
Not bad actually. I go to uni and since the university Is cheap compared to others I've manged to save a small fortune but I know it'll be gone when I transfer to the state's flagship University.
>How are the roads, houses, towns, cities
Depends on where you live. I live in the suburbs so the infrastructure is pretty nice but vulnerable to bad weather. In the city which is a 15-min to 30 min drive from here it's allot better but more crammed and crowded. The countryside which is an hour drive away, is mostly farms and private property. Small towns scatter the map but there does not seem to be anything of interest there.
>Pic related is where I live

It's a bigger city but more of a laid back attitude.

Roads are OK but winter messes them up.

Lots of old Victorian style homes even some brick roads in some places.

Downtown is pretty dirty but it has a huge river flowing through the middle of it and some fun things to do with lots of small shops

Not a lot of crime but a decent amount of homeless people

Everything is green in the spring/summer with lots of forests and rivers/lakes around the city.

Anything else?

Many of the people from outside Yuro I've met both on- and off line tend to imagine entire continent as a one big Great Britain. It's a fun cultural phenomenon and this is exactly what I'm interested in while talking with y'all here.

No royalty here, but I guess if it hatches tourist penny, then why not. Buckingham palace is like European Disneyland with a 24/7 employed RP actors.

>Arizona
>Going outside
What is this like, exactly?

We make a bigger deal of personal independence here, and having one's children live at one's house can be a pretty big burden.

Flew through pheonix last weekend. I feel bad for arizonanon

No, but really, aside from the heat, the hermit life is okay. You're pretty safe unless you go full retard in some cases.

also muh right to bear arms

I honestly just meant the heat. I didnt leave the terminal as it was a connecting flight. You guys have real pretty giant red cliffs tho which was fun to look at

The scenery here is pretty good, and it gets better when you go even more north in the state, Sedona is comfy as fuck. I want to live there but it's pretty expensive. Only went up there for a wedding once

>Vermont
If I hadn't previously lived in the Rockies, I'd love it here. I really like the town where I live, but I'm just not connecting with New England's climate and culture. It's gorgeous here, but I've never felt so lonely.
I miss sunshine, arid air, friendliness, and muh freedoms.
>pic is national forest across the street

You only asked one question.

>land of the free
>fda bans handsoap

lellin keller

And he answered him.

*it
Fuck me.

>what is your place like,
I live in my parents' two story house in a lower-middle class neighborhood in the north side of Chicago. There's a big pine tree in the back yard that is taller than the house and the tree in front of the house is about the height of the house. There's a corner store on the corner and a bus stop nearby and an el train station close by too. There's also an on-ramp to the expressway just a block south.
>how do you see it, how is life to you?
It's okay. Hopefully I'll be moving out soon though. I want to live right by the lake (currently about 4 miles west of the lake).
>How are the roads, houses, towns, cities?
Decent roads. They're a bit bad in the shitty areas though and have potholes, especially after winter when the ice thaws. Houses can range from really bad to extreme luxury depending on where you are in the city.
