Slowburbia

The ever expanding suburbs - nothing going on... just houses and strip malls... no sense of community, and the night life is gone soon after sundown. It's great to raise a family, but not to be a young adult looking for fun after hours.
I gotta get up to the city, there is nothing going on here in slowburbia.
