City People vs. Country People

Let’s be honest: some people are built for city life.

They love the traffic, the noise, and lining up to sit in a park.  They’ll swear their four-foot patio is basically a backyard.  And a 700-square-foot condo? So cozy.

But then there’s the rest of us.

The ones who crave space. Who want to see the stars, not just the glow of a skyline.  The ones who aren’t afraid to dream a little bigger and build a life that doesn’t require permission slips.

Out here, country living hits different.

Want a garden? Plant one.
Need a workshop? Make it as big as you want.
Thinking about getting chickens? No one’s stopping you.

This is acreage living, where the land is yours and the rules are fewer.

No stacked neighbours. No bylaw battles. No one peeking over the fence to weigh in on your weekend projects.

Sure, the city crowd will tell you that rural real estate is inconvenient.  And if you need a Starbucks on every corner, maybe they’re right.

But if you want peace, privacy, and the freedom to live on your terms, then deep down, you already know where you belong.

City life or country life.  Where do you see yourself?
