๐ผLife in the Suburbs
๊ต์ธ ์ํ
You may have seen many movies and TV shows from America that talk about โlife in the suburbs.โ For many people, owning a home in the suburbs is a sign that you have โmade it.โ Homes in the suburbs are significantly cheaper, larger, and more modern than those in the city.

Owning your own home shows that youโre financially successful and responsible. Many people also believe that the suburbs are safer and have better schools, so theyโre also a great place to raise a family. This is why youโll often see people who lived in the city in their 20s and 30s move to the suburbs when theyโre ready to start a family.

Also, most American cities are not that convenient or interesting. Of course, living in New York City has a lot of benefits. Itโs a very walkable city with great public transportation. The crime rate is now low, and thereโs always lots to do.

However, most capital cities arenโt like that. Take Phoenix, for example. Thereโs not much to do in downtown other than see a baseball game or go to a few bars and clubs. The city definitely isnโt walkable. So, most people would rather live in a bigger, cleaner, more modern house and just drive to downtown when they need to.

We should also take American culture into account. Americans value independence, freedom, and privacy. Those three things are lacking in a big, crowded city but are readily available in the suburbs. Since America is so spread out, people are used to driving a few hours to get from place to place. For many Americans, the suburbs still seem like a better place to live.
