Frankly I don’t understand why certain people have to be so closed-minded and it’s just bizarre to be so closed-minded over things you have no personal experience with. All married people have previously been single. All home owners have previously been renters. I’d venture to say many people who live in suburbs have previously lived in cities. So at least these people have the ability to compare. And I would guess that these people, if they are honest, would say there are pros and cons about all of these scenarios. What you choose as your favorite is your OPINION. We all have them. Why does the opinion opposite of yours have to be wrong? I see nothing wrong with single people renting in cities. I used to be one for goodness’ sake. Hasn’t there ever been anything you thought you wouldn’t like but you tried it and ended up loving it? I know I have many examples of this happening to me but then again I’m not as closed-minded as some….
