Are you one of them or do you prefer city life? I live in a 200 year old cottage on the edge of a village because I like the character and the peace and quiet when I get home. What’s your place like? |

Young man, there's no need to feel down, I said, young man, pick yourself off the ground, I said, young man, 'cause you're in a new town, There's no need to be unhappy…
Du du du du du du |

We live in a quiet part of a busy seaside town. We like it, we're a very short walk from the beach and countryside alike, we can drive to shops, galleries and restaurants in around five minutes and public transport links are pretty good. If we had a lot more money we would probably live in a very rural location. |

He lives in a house
A very big house in the country
Watching afternoon repeats
And the food he eats in the country
He takes all manner of pills
And piles up analyst bills in the country
Oh, it's like an animal farm
That's the rural charm in the country |

I moved to a village out of necessity to care for family from a city. I do miss some aspects of city life, there was always something to do but I’m settled in the village now and I’m people are more friendly |

Bit suburban at the moment. Hopefully next year I’ll be in the city centre. I wouldn’t be against the countryside either though. A lot of my hobbies (away from sex) are outdoor based in the countryside. |

I'm a Village so peaceful relaxing it's heavenly surrounded by farms, lovely folk the odd oddball and local to few dogging hot spots and few local businesses which also comes very handy and the airport within the distance |

I live in a village. I've never lived in a city, and never could. I lived in a large town for a while and didn't like it. I'm a country girl, nature soothes me...if I could afford to I'd live as remotely as I possibly could, a house in the middle of fields would be bliss. |

I guess you could say I am urban with a countryside view
I live in a small town but we have a station with mainline connections to Manchester & Leeds
The front of the house is on a main - but not busy - road
Out back there is a small estate and then farmland & hills, which because the house is elevated, we get to see lots of |

"Are you rich ?
Village life is romanticised..... it's bloody expensive and so are cottages"
No! If you own a cottage you can’t be rich because they’re constantly needing work done which isn’t cheap. A bit like horse owners aren’t rich because they spend so much on horses. Or so I’m told. |

The constant spending on upkeep requires a certain level of income.
Maybe you are in oil after all. |

Done the big city centre - great for work, always something to do nearby and a buzz.
Done the big house in the country - was lively when kids were small but got boring after a while and the novelty wore off.
Settled on town centre in a smaller town as a compromise. Close enough to get to the countryside, has most amenities nearby and the big city is close enough for occasional work/leisure trips.
If money was no object would live city in the week and countryside at the weekends.

I grew up in towns but moved up to a little village about 3 years ago and you couldn't pay me to move back to be honest, I love the peace and quiet that I have out here surrounded by fields, only a few miles from the nearest town but far enough to be away from it |
