    Its a grass is always greener thing, man.

    Suburbs arent a magic land of peace and fairies.

    Suburbs is where most of my experiences like yours have happened. Assaulted by crackhead, Had someone threaten to go get their gun and shoot me (thankfully to drugged out of their mind to remember their task, but it made for a real great nights sleep), Neighbors who love to mix alcohol and firearms, who the police do nothing about, etc, etc.

      Sounds like we’re talking different kinds of suburbs, then. I’m moving to a place where minor vandalism would make the front page news

        Ohh so you’re moving to a wealthier neighborhood. Could have just said that. Capital is your problem, not city vs. non-city.
