What's it like living in the suburbs?

[3am scholar]

All I know is city life, am I missing out? Aware me brahs.

 

[powerballin]

you are missing out on all the nice houses filled with white women and alcohol

 

[matt53]

Its cool. Lived here all my life. Ask me anything.

As a minority (Asian), it feels very white. At times I forget I'm of color. Its kinda weird. So very white.

Axe me dawg

 

[thadocta]

More bishes in the city subrubs r kinda wack

 

[rico x hood]

A lot of trees. Too many damn trees.

 

[shogun]

Very boring. I think that's why people I knew in high school did a lot of drugs. Boredom.

 

[ebozek9]

Living in the suburbs, I could tell you that I probably know more people that ****ed up their life due to drugs, a ton of alcoholics, and a lot of car accident deaths in teens because of pure boredom. The things to do include movies, bowling, or drinking. It truly is a boring life.

 

[Bert.]

boring but at least its safe (not all burbs are safe)

 

[robinvandamn]

Really boring and extremely quiet...

 

[RIP sleazyy]

so much this.

when I moved out of my prior crackhead infested complex into this suburban wonderland, I didn't know what to do with myself. went to a girls house and her mom made us drinks and told me if I smoked to go in the garage and don't dump the guts in the trashcan. I was like 16.

I will never willingly go back to da hood, b. lots of pillheads in the burbs though. it stays quiet, and it's boring as hell, but now I only worry about getting shot when I go to my cousins parties instead of walking home from 711.

Never living it the burbs. DAT downtown life for me.

It is calm and peaceful,not my steez though

Grew up in dem 'burbs. A few things I remember:

- As soon as you walked through the front door, it didn't really matter if you locked it or not.

- Lots of nosy neighbors (y'all really started a neighborhood watch team?)

- Kids walk on everyone's lawns.

- From morning til 4pm and dusk til morning it is quiet time.

- Getting your golf clubs stolen out of your garage was the equivalent to a 187 in the hood.

- There was always one gay couple or homeowner on the block whom everyone was afraid to socialize with; didn't get the block party invite.

- If you had a portable basketball hoop, it belonged to everyone on the street.

- Hopefully when I'm 40 and have a family I'll be back. I developed serious paranoia after I left.

I dont live in suburbs. but i have cousins that do. when im out there its boring. its dead. streets are dead. everywhere around is closed early besides 7/11. Gas stations close early. Everything. Cops are posted up in random spots ready to pull young kids over or black people over.

Cops will harass the f outta u there because there is no real crime that happens over there. So they try to get something going on in their lives of boredom.

Its dark @ night time. You cant see **** in some areas. You will see weird animals such as wolves and coyotes over here in MA.

It sucks. I could never do it.
