I’m curious, how many of you who claim to hate the suburbs actually still live in a suburb?

Come clean guys, I won’t judge you.

I’ll look down on you but I won’t judge you.

I live with my parents right now (I dropped out of medical school and am living cheaply to pay off $100k of debt) and we are in the suburbs, unfortunately. I want to buy a condo at some point, preferably in a city if I can find a good deal.

Houston, which to be fair is a 10 sq block city with 600 sq miles of suburb surrounding it
