All I could find was a seven year old discussion, my apologies if I'm beating a dead horse with this topic...
I grew up in a large city so I'm used to living around lots of people, now in my 40's, and I've always lived in a large city.
I get the sense that lots of Aspies tend to prefer small towns, or am I wrong?
Why do I like a big city? And I do live quite close to the downtown area... I enjoy arts and culture, the various events of all seasons (summer, fall, winter, spring), and as I enjoy street photography I do like the hustle and bustle.
Within my city there are lots of parks, natural areas and grass nearby the city centre, so an escape to a little nature isn't hard.
I am also surrounded on all sides by lots of open space, a few times a year I head out for trips onto the Canadian prairies, photography of course, once spent six days driving around rural Saskatchewan, camera in tow. I do enjoy these trips that get me away from the big city, but I love living the urban lifestyle most of the time!
