Would you like to live in a big city or small town?

While I never cared for large cities, my wife loves them. Being from Hongkong, she is a regular uptown girl. However, we found we are perfectly happy here in a mid-sized city. Ann Arbor is just the right size. It has 200,000-ish people, plus a very vibrant cultural life, thanks to all the students of U of M. It provides just about all the convenience that a large city can offer without the heavy rush hour traffic, heavy pollution and high crime rates.
