As a sample survey question, we are asking where you reside. Please answer with urban (city or town), suburban (adjacent to a city), village (tiny town or un-incorporated community), in the country (miles out from town or village).

Sandi (finfansand) | 54 comments I don't fit neatly into any of those categories. I'm about an hour from the two big cities nearby but I'm definitely not out in the country. There's little mass transportation around here, but there's also no farm equipment either!

I'd have to say suburb of the county seat, which is 15 minutes away.

It does sound like you are in a suburb. Does your particular place had its own mayor or city council? (not sure what the government terms are in different areas of the world, but maybe something similar?)

Thanks for participating in our informal poll.

Abigail Bok (regency_reader) | 513 comments I’d say more or less a suburban area, though my city is a real city with industry and all.


message 37: by Laurel (new)

Laurel Bradshaw (llawryf) | 11 comments Country - also on a dirt road. But 35 miles from a large metropolitan area. The best of both worlds!
