Chef is right on. Could never tolerate large suburban areas myself. Anonymity favors the weak. Years ago i would have agreed that small towns tend to be populated by dim folks but having spent most of my life in two local towns with populations of approx. 3k people i'm beginning to think small towns are tougher to make it in because mediocrity can't hide. Definitely agree that the 'who you know' thing is always present anywhere. it might be tougher to see in big towns because such a relatively small % of the population is in the 'circle'.
For the record i did live and work outside of DC (Frederick to Rockville) for a few years after college. Liked Frederick (more countrified) but never felt at home closer to DC. Big fancy neighborhoods populated by high paid execs who never take the time to meet their neighbors unless they want something from them. Speeders pics look wonderful though and i do enjoy being around people.

I believe we all make mistakes but I will not validate your poor choices and/or perversions and subsidize the results your actions.
