Research For My Book

So, what do you like about cities?

(If your answer is "nothing", that's fine, but I'll ask what people hate about cities in another entry sometime.)

Also, if you didn't grow up in a city, what was your first impression on the first time you entered one?

Thank'ee . :D

Cities

[mama-hogswatch.livejournal.com]

I don't tend to unilaterally like cities, but it's not hard for me to like one, either.

I hate LA. Icky, yucky. The only thing I like about Orlando is Disney World.

Parts of San Diego I like very much.

I am fond of Richmond, Boston, New York and Washington, D.C.

For me, I tend to like a city if it's somewhere where I can walk or take a subway where I want to go, but a sprawling metropolis in which I HAVE to drive is not so nice. (That criteria puts Richmond low on the list, but it is very much home to me).

I would hate Boston if I had to drive in it regularly.

I like the energy of a city. I am not sure I would enjoy living in one, but visits are a lot of fun. I have a lot of good memories tied up in visiting the cities I have named.
