On December 26th, I wanted to stop at Walmart and Sam's Club to pick up a few things. While driving home from Russiaville, Indiana, I thought it would be convenient to stop in Greenwood and get the shopping out of the way. However, as I drove past Walmart and Sam's Club in Greenwood, I saw parking lots packed with cars as if December 26th were Black Friday. It looked like a madhouse, so I kept driving, wasting a few minutes in Greenwood.
Instead, I did my shopping in Columbus. I had to go a little out of my way, but not by much. The parking situation was much more manageable.
I used to live a block from Greenwood and went to the city almost daily. One of the many reasons I moved back to my hometown of Columbus, Indiana, was that I was tired of all the traffic issues in Greenwood.
My point is that living in a small city seems more manageable than living in a big city and has far fewer traffic problems. Columbus has almost everything I need and is easier to deal with as I get older.
