What is healthier and more fulfilling, living in a village or a city?

There are multiple studies that show that growing up in a city leads to an increased risk of suffering from mental diseases later in life.

On the other hand, historically cities were the hotspots of cultural development and civilizational refinement, whereas today cities are often regarded as an agglomeration of human filth.

Only by those who take no part in "cultural development and civilizational development," as you put it. Just like always. Cities have never been less "filthy" and "villages" mostly no longer even exist, replaced by alienating "suburbs" that lack all their social advantages. I live in a city and my neighborhood is much more cohesive and supportive than the suburb I grew up in.

But today cities are more attractive for the poor due to social benefits and social and proper infrastructure. In the Renaissance for example, becoming citizen of a city required skill and monetary assets.

I live in a city, but would like to move to a small town somewhere in Maine, or something.

What kind of city are you referring to anon?
From my own frame of reference, l've lived in Leeds, Exeter, York and London, all cities yet all incredibly different.
Then again a village in rural fuckingmintedshire is going to be nicer that some shithole in Nopavedroadia.

That's not true. Nation states mean those social benefits are avaliable everywhere, which is why, for example, most welfare recipients are rural.

I do not like villages. I do not like knowing every other people I pass on the street. I do not like seeing people that once were my friends once a week on a bus. I like to leave the past in the past, and not be reminded.

If you're talking about the US that is not remotely true.

Unless you count farm subzidies, which is stupid since they go to owners, and the labor force they use is mostly migrants.

They both have benefits.

I've lived in NYC and the rural south. Both have big trade offs.

The Rocky Mountain states have much better rural areas because the economy is based on a mix of ecotourism, arts, and natural resources extraction. The rural south is just dying. It's also full over government red tape and high taxes despite "muh liberty."

No, no, it's quite true.

>If you're talking about the US that is not remotely true.

Yes it is. No I'm not talking about farm subsidies. I'm talking about stuff like food stamps.

No it isn't. Google it.

You're probably being misled because it is highly cited that PARTICIPATION rates for SNAP are higher in rural areas. More eligible people use it there. This is also a recent trend.

Simply looking up the share of the population that lives in rural counties should tell you how stupid it is to claim that most welfare spending is rural.

EITC and Medicaid are far larger shares of the welfare budget and are also spent mostly in urban areas.

Per capital spending is higher in rural areas because the poverty rate is about 5% higher and it includes all Indian Affairs spending but at the same time grant programs and infrastructure spending dwarf rural programs and concentrate on cities.
