Yes, quality of life gets better with city life. Because more people, more chances for dynamic interactions and chances for cross-pollination of ideas.

Unless you are into a self-sufficient lifestyle and prefer to eke out your own existence

True, but how true?

Are you cross-pollinating more ideas with people in your town/city? Or are you sharing more ideas with strangers on the internet?

reply

Both.

Because I’m extroverted and meet new people on my job. And Singapore is a compact country - it’s not difficult to meet new people to exchange ideas (even for a time-pressed father like me).

My wife lives in the Japanese countryside (inaka), so my offline life crawls to a standstill every Dec I stay at my parents-in-law’s place. So I think my offline life in the city is more happening than that at her territory
