Three hours to the mountains. Comparing notes to friends in larger places mostly you do the same stuff. Work, send kids to school, watch Netflix.  The larger centers are better for things like concerts or sport events but if you don't care about them.  Shops seem mostly the same difference is the scale and high end luxury items. Funny thing is talking to some of the people in bigger cities they seem to expect the smaller ones are out in the boon docks. Jobs even pay similar unless you're in corporate type ones. Friends got salty when she found out I gotta paid more than her, half the rent twice the size apartment. Her sister and father visted and confirmed it lol.  I don't really regard Boston as a large city.  It's smaller than Auckland but I know it's pricey because it's in New England or close enough.  There's a lot less variety in prices here though. Dunedin my city is more expensive than Christchurch at around 1/3rd the size but it's almost half the price of Aucklands average. Christchurch is the cheapest city though.  But even the average town is around 280k and up. Idk how much Boise Idaho costs or state capitals in places like Iowa cost. Or how available jobs are but once again depends on what you want/expect.  Here you can get a 6 figure job in a small town eg engineer working for the local council. You might have a better life on 60k somewhere smaller than 100k in Auckland.  100k isn't regarded as enough to buy a house in Auckland though you need to be a DINK and that's almost double the average wage so yeah. If you don't like the great outdoors though wrong country perhaps.</blockquote>
