I'm a medium population kinda girl...of course, I love living in NYC, so there goes that theory!

High, because it offers more opportunities for jobs, education, socialising and culture. The more people live in your "catchment area", the more choices you have. Also, I hate driving.
It's a myth that high density places are always noisy and polluted. For instance, I found that central Amsterdam was a lot more quiet than many low density suburbs I've been to. It's just a matter of finding them.
Ideally it would be a combination of high and low, eg. a dense city surrounded by a national park or mountains. Zurich, Switzerland is a place like that. It has the highest quality of life in the world according to a study by Mercer.

High density! In a nice loft or condo downtown where all the action and life is. Everything in walking distance. I can go to the clubs and not have to woryy about driving home drunk. Just a hell of a lot more to do. In the sucky burbs youre stuck 10 miles from anything. Dullsville.

Right now- high. I need the busy, hectic lifestyle or I get lost and fall. I need people around me to remind me I'm not alone. I need to be engulfed in all the life I can while I'm still capable of living. I need action, I need noise, I need life...
In the future though- when I've found what I need- what I'm looking for out of all this- maybe then I'd go in a low destiny setting with the ones I love and settle down. But not yet...I'm still searching.

Medium. I lived in Boston for a while. It was way too crowded. The "country" atmosphere freaks me out. I don't like people with teeth missing. Now I live in Kansas City. It's just right. Not too big, not too small.

Low in the morning, medium during the day. Evenings depends of mood, could be all.

Well considering I live in NYC, I don't have much of a choice! My family is from upstate NY, but, I don't mind the 25 million people that live here.

low because it's in the lowest populated area of the world that people really need help.

Medium.
I live in Austin, Texas, which is about right, but I grew up in Los Angeles, which is way too big. But country living is just too far from services, friends and so on.
