Because anyone who lives outside of a city is either a dumb farmer, or a suburb rat.

Because it's close to jobs and amenities that they enjoy.

>why do you young people want to live in the city

Why would you not want to live in the city?

Because everything interesting is in the city.

Stupidity and a lack of self reliance mostly

Is she the new fotm pornstar?

>can be within 5 minutes of everything I need and want
>short commute to work
>tons of options for restaurants

Why would you want to live somewhere where anything you do requires 20+ minutes of driving just to get there?

Like minded people, easier access to basically everything, more focus on federal funding so changes tend to actually happen when needed, etc.

What confuses me is why the fuck people want to live off in the boonies where it's a 30 minute drive to EVERYTHING and you're basically 100% dead in a medical emergency since the nearest dispatch in 20 minutes off.

If I need milk for my tea right now, I can be at a store in under 30 seconds, there's one down the street. At my grandparents farm it's a 10 minute drive. This is a needless inconvenience at every facet of life and I will never understand why it draws people.

>when you're such a useless fucking tit you have to pay other people to entertain you and thank them for the privilege

I wanna fugg Soe

She's an event caster for video games, works at Blizzard. Sorry no dick, just natural vagina.

Not all of us find entertainment in fucking our cows, Cleetus.

Sorry man i dont want to commute several hours a day to my job.

There is also nothing to do and shitty medical services the further from civilization you go.

>What confuses me is why the fuck people want to live off in the boonies where it's a 30 minute drive to EVERYTHING and you're basically 100% dead in a medical emergency since the nearest dispatch in 20 minutes off.

This.

It's no comparison. Near or in the city is the best unless you're raising a family and your children are young

>when you're such a useless faggot that you talk shit on internet and still come to the city when you need something other than a cow dung

>Live always near a store, restaurant or other food supplier
>Live near work / schools
>Quality schools
>Entertainment and things to do
>Public transport means I dont need to own a car
Why wouldnt want to live in a city?

Only reason not to live in the big city is if you can't afford it.

>muh hunting
Even on autismbux you can afford to take the train to a rural shithole and shoot shit there, no need to actually live there

>this is the worst thing he came up with

UMMMmmm Dotards???

There's always something to do and tons of jobs if you are a professional, but if you wanna be a farmer then you can fuck off to the countryside alone like an autist.

>more focus on federal funding so changes tend to actually happen when needed, etc.
What changes? More overcrowded schools? Maybe a new park with 6 gorillion people picking up dog shit in plastic baggies? A new business to add to the polluted air you breathe?
>What confuses me is why the fuck people want to live off in the boonies where it's a 30 minute drive to EVERYTHING
Because most normal people can go 30 minutes without outside stimulation.
>If I need milk for my tea right now, I can be at a store in under 30 seconds, there's one down the street. At my grandparents farm it's a 10 minute drive. This is a needless inconvenience at every facet of life
Because most normal people can make 1 weekly trip to the grocer and accurately guage their tea milk consumption
>I will never understand why it draws people.
Privacy, near total freedom to do as you please when you please, safety, self sufficiency, etc

>Why would you want to live somewhere where anything you do requires 20+ minutes of driving just to get there?
To not live near niggers, pretty much the entire reason suburbs were invented for.

>Because most normal people can go 30 minutes without outside stimulation.

Should have packed it up here and not wasted the keystrokes on the rest of the post. Your pathetic attempt at superiority lays out why your post goes straight into the trash.

Make sure you warm the car up, you'll need to drive 50 minutes into town to get cheese for your macaroni tonight.

Millenials are possibly the gayest generation yet, it's unsurprising they'd want to live in cities (probably to get their neg hole pozzzed)

>What changes? More overcrowded schools? Maybe a new park with 6 gorillion people picking up dog shit in plastic baggies? A new business to add to the polluted air you breathe?

Has to resort to fucking DOG SHIT as it's the best he can come up with, off to a sad start

>Because most normal people can go 30 minutes without outside stimulation.

What is stimulating about needing household items? Emergencies? Impromptu stuff?

>Because most normal people can make 1 weekly trip to the grocer and accurately guage their tea milk consumption

Note how he said "every facet" and you instead chose to focus only on the example? That shows you have no argument and are already panicking to find ways to respond to his post.

>Privacy, near total freedom to do as you please when you please, safety, self sufficiency, etc

Funny, I go out for walks almost nightly, sometimes as late as 1-2am and I have no issues. I also question what "near total freedom" you are implying here that a city robs you of, I'm assuming your marijuana grow op.

>What changes? More overcrowded schools?
Literally all the good schools are in Toronto.

Sorry but that's just where the resources go.

>Maybe a new park with 6 gorillion people picking up dog shit in plastic baggies? A new business to add to the polluted air you breathe?

All the money goes to the city.

Compare Toronto libraries to some tiny shit one in the middle of nowhere.

>Because most normal people can go 30 minutes without outside stimulation.
Can and should is different.

It fucking sucks commuting everywhere especially in the winter.

>Privacy, near total freedom to do as you please when you please, safety, self sufficiency, etc

>Total freedom
Freedom to live in the middle of nowhere and do nothing, yeah.

But how is that freedom practical? What can I use it for?

>70068955
There is almost nothing you can do in the city that I can't do in the countryside or small town, there are lots of things I can do that you can't though

Fair enough

It's honestly one of the worst things I can think of

Not even close, there's every possibility you are closer to Alberta than I am

>Look mom, I discovered tabloids

Looks like the sheep fucking got you a brain parasite. They may not be able to get pregnant, but that isn't license to stick your dick up there unprotected.

>DUDE ONE PErSON DID SOMETHING
>CITIES BTFO

Who the fuck cares

Gays make up 2% of the population. A tiny fraction of those is trannies. They literally pose no risk.

If Canada is anything like the US rural areas suck money from productive workers in cities and STILL have nothing

I spend 99% of my time indoors. Why the fuck should I care what is around my house so long as I am within walking distance of at least one convenience store? Even small towns have those.

The only thing that makes a difference is proximity to work. I'm not a farmer, a logger, a trucker, or a tractor mechanic. Why would I live in the countryside if the only applicable skill I have there is growing weed?

>when you realise that Western Millenials will have birth-rates even lower than the Japanese, and will ultimately be a footnote in the history of humanity

>There is almost nothing you can do in the city that I can't do in the countryside or small town

Nightlife

meet interesting people (there's more to choose from in a city of several million than 10,000)

get all the tax money that gets funneled into public services

Be close to civilization

Be the first to get the latest whether it be medical services or fibre optic lines

Be close to many different clubs, stores, etc

>Why would I live in the countryside if the only applicable skill I have there is growing weed?
Never change leaf kek

>5 km drive to work in fuckhuge city
>takes 1,5h because of all the fucking traffic jam

>5 km drive to work in a more rural area
>takes 5 minutes at most
??

My rural hs friends still has no non wireless Internet. He has to use a cell tower.

People who grew up in a suburb want to live in the city.
People who grew up in the city want to get out.
Grass is always greener on the other side.

km drive to work in a more rural area
>>takes 5 minutes at most

There's no good jobs besides some manual labour and min wage shit in rural areas.

I want to move to the country, or at least a small city but I here the competition for jobs is generally worse out there

> unironically hating millenials

Ever consideree suicide, my dude?

Why do people use millenial as if it were relevant in their country? I doubt "millennials" (though similar generational patterns probably exist) are even a thing in Italy and not some American phrase you decided to parrot after the Americanization of Europe.

>People who grew up in the city want to get out.

Nope, happy here.

>Nightlife
We have nightlife too. Yours consists of paying to go to a theatre, then paying to go to a restaurant, then paying to go to a club, then paying a cab or uber to drive you home with a city girl who absolutely will be high maintenance.
Mine consists of going fishing on the kayaks, then to a bonfire with friends where someone will play the guitar and we will eat our free locally sourced organic fish, then home with a small town girl who is impressed because your car has airbags.
>meet interesting people (there's more to choose from in a city of several million than 10,000)
There is more to choose from, more brown ones, black ones, yellow ones, criminal ones, etc.
There is a a figure called the Dunbar number, it says that it's basically impossible to have more than 150 friends and only about 5 of them at the most will be very close friends.
>get all the tax money that gets funneled into public services
What public services and why would I need these?
>Be close to civilization
What civilisation? It just seems dirty and overcrowded
>Be the first to get the latest whether it be medical services or fibre optic lines
Fair enough, though waiting a year is well worth the trade off imo
>Be close to many different clubs, stores, etc
You are close to those in a small town, and for the most part I'd personally rather be as self sufficient as possible

Well we know you love the countryside because that's where you dispose of the bodies.

In Canada the farming industry is control by a cabal, no regular person makes it anywhere farming. Growing drugs is literally the only value you have unless you're close enough to a hippy paradise to sell organic fag carrots.

How did you find work?

What do you recommend to someone who wants to move to rural ON or AB?

>Mine consists of going fishing on the kayaks, then to a bonfire with friends where someone will play the guitar and we will eat our free locally sourced organic fish, then home with a small town girl who is impressed because your car has airbags.

I can do that too.

But I only need or want to do that once in a while. If I want to go kayaking I can just take a weekend trip. And otherwise I live close to my job and everything else I need.

You on the otherhand can go kayaking everyday with ease but cannot get to any amenities in a timely manner.

>There is more to choose from, more brown ones, black ones, yellow ones, criminal ones, etc.
>There is a a figure called the Dunbar number, it says that it's basically impossible to have more than 150 friends and only about 5 of them at the most will be very close friends.

I didn't claim the contrary, just that it's easier to find likeminded people from 2 million than from 50,000.

>What public services and why would I need these?

Libraries, public transportation, fountains, ice rinks, stuff like that.

>You are close to those in a small town, and for the most part I'd personally rather be as self sufficient as possible

That's good for you, but the question is why do MILLENNIALS like it. And the answer is quite obvious.

No idea about ON or AB, I'm a fisherman, it's good work.

to be away from degenerate rednecks, duh.

You didn't get my shitpost apparently I like the city more dumbass.

white collar job prospects, nightlife, education

>2017
>still replying to millennial poster
Ahhh yes so this is the famed neo-Sup Forums

>not responding to every porn, jorge, suicide/depression/r9k thread and saging all the actual discussion

Hello normie

Why do you want to live here?

ROLE PLAYING CANDIAN YOU MADMAN

...

No idea, I prefer the quiet country

Whats the mk build? 2-1-2 or 2-0-3?

>close to her thirties
>still not married

haram

>Implying
Subhuman boomers raised the housing price and made it nearly impossible for a Millenial to buy a house without being indebt

If it weren't for that plenty of Millenials would be happy to live in the countryside

>safety
Love me those rural meth addicts
>self suffeciency
In a community propped up by federal and provincial gibs

People from the sticks are retarded and lacking in self awareness.

>If it weren't for that plenty of Millenials would be happy to live in the countryside
The trend since the 19th century has been people fleeing rural shitholes for urban areas en masse. But sure thing Jacque Abdul clearly millenials love the backwater.

The Trend is reversing, Chang Chin Dong al Iraqi

>the trend is reversing
>people are moving to mid size cities more than to historical big cities

Read what you post retard.

Oh also this article only refers to America and doesn't even go into detail about suburbanization. But hey ignore the fact that as of 2007 literally the majority of the world lives in urban areas.

>TFW you live in Aurora

HELP

People in the countryside are usually ugly idiots who are either addicted to drugs or alcohol, also the hundreds of kids the rural idiots poop out usually do nothing but act like thugs all day because there's absolutely nothing to do.

>Sit around doing drugs and drinking in public
>"There's nothing to do in the country!"

>Move to the city
>"It's so vibrant here!"
>Sit around doing drugs and drinking IN PUBLIC

Is this what people in the outback tell themselves in between emu raids?

SAVE ME From Aurora!!!!!!!

Actually, yeah. When I lived in the middle of the desert, basically all anyone over the age of 13 did was drink and smoke until they couldn't walk properly, then get picked up by the cops. There were actual emu raids, by the way. Every now and then, an emu or family of emus would wander into town and the cops would have to come out and scare them off with air-horns since we didn't have a proper animal control team.

Suburban life is much more enjoyable. Less people, less noise, all the services you need are there, cheaper to live and less crime.

Only students and poor people live in cities. Everyone else moves to the smaller towns surrounding the cities.

>Should have packed it up here and not wasted the keystrokes on the rest of the post. Your pathetic attempt at superiority lays out why your post goes straight into the trash.
Ah yes, because your post had no extremely unwarranted superiority?
>Make sure you warm the car up, you'll need to drive 50 minutes into town to get cheese for your macaroni tonight.
Ah yes, then you act smug (when you just complained about it) when his post addressed this exact claim.

It takes me 5 minutes to drive to the nearest store, and even I buy my all my weekly groceries at the same time. As it turns out, if you manage your time properly and plan ahead everything is easier.

Suburban life is such a soulless joke it's probably the only thing rurals and urbanites can find common ground on.

The only reason to live in a large city here is because you chose a uni on the other side of the country and don't want to travel 4 hours every day. Otherwise you avoid the tourist infested shitholes.

Face it senpai, anything you can do in your city I can do as well. It takes me 20 minutes to drive to the nearest big population center. I get all the pros, none of the cons.

I wanna live in the countryside desu.

because they they want to live in a big place with lots to do and lots of people to meet, and to mingle with other young intelligent beautiful people like themselves

you mean jungle

the risk is they have more than 2% influence

No.
