Utah.

I know, I know. You've heard some of the negative hype about our local religious beliefs or that we are backwards. Disregard it, because it's only an issue if you make it an issue.

There are a great number of communities within Utah that are smaller and more down to earth and yet they are within close range of those things should you desire them.

Even in the bustling city of Salt Lake, we have some of these places like Walmarts, Starbucks and McDonalds, but they aren't on every street corner and mostly you can find other places as well.

Hope this helps and you find a place to your liking.

Love, as always,

Sebastian

Suburbia is a type consciousness, a world-view shaped by corporate entities.

Suburbs is a physical space.

So yes, you can have suburbia invade New York City or any place on the planet via cyberspace.

To answer your question, let me just tell you that that's a doctoral dissertaion question.

Good Luck

Rural areas. By definition, you need to be within commute of a city to be a suburb and have these things. There are literally places, ranches and farms, in the middle of nowhere, 3 or 4 hours from a teeny "city" where you'd kill for a Starbucks.

I'm in Kentucky and we have places that aren't taken over by corporate America. Lots of farms and hunting land.

do you know what suburbia is? It means suburbs - i.e. families and homes. It has nothing to do with corporate entities.

PS. it's etc (etcetera) not ECT

Have you ever been to Southeatsern Oklahoma? They call it Little Dixie. Think of Dukes of Hazzard and pretty well imagine it to be true.

I think you need to look up the word "suburbia".
