Urban Life

I would have to say that I have lived in Urban areas my whole life. I lived in McLean, VA for 18 years and I have been living in Herndon, VA for the past 2 years. The book talks about more urban industrial areas being developed and that is definitely true. There is always so much construction going on with the roads or new houses. Everytime I get on the highway, there is always some type of construction going on causing traffic to occur. Now I think they are (or will start) to be working on the Metro out near tysons. I think that will get a lot more people to come to that area so that they do not have to waste their gas, since gas is expensive, and the metro is always pretty efficient. I'm kind of glad I have never lived in a rural area. I don't think I would get used to it easily and I feel like I'm more of a city girl.
