Hey you, where do you live?
the_pied_piper:
I live in this shithole town that apparently has a fair amount of history.
We have a castle
it was built in the 1070s and slighted in 1646 by the Roundheads because some idiot thought he was better than the common people.
We also have an old monastery
it was built in 1134 and dissolved in 1536; now it is a museum.
Now the houses look like this
and the area is pretty poor.
We too have a chemical plant
however, this one is still active and the pollution is horrid.
So there you have it, it's fucking grim up north.

I live in what is appropriately described as a glorified box amidst people who I don't really know at all. But my dorm is one of the most centrally located on campus, and is close to the music building and student center, two places where I spend a lot of time.
I want to study abroad next year because sometimes I feel like I've spent too much time in one spot and I need to go live somewhere new for a bit to appreciate what I've got where I am now.

I live in a place that looks like this in the wet seasons...
...and this in the dry ones.
I'm pretty near this place (clickable),
about four hours from this place (clickable),
and three hours from here (clickable).
Honestly, though I've lived in LA and spent a lot of time in San Francisco, I think I greatly prefer the central coast. It is a place of transcendent beauty,
where horses are kept,
where pelicans take off,
and crabs, er, you know...
and sometimes, even in the sadder, dirtier places, beauty weasels its way in.

Also, bonus video! (sorry for the terrible sound)
Lines:
I live on a busy street in an old building. There's lots of people that walk and drive by, some serenely walking their dogs, other blaring whatever disco or rap they happen to be into that day. (We definitely dance to car radios.) There are plenty of shops and restaurants along our street and also several buskers and artists who will draw your portrait. The little theater has all the popular independent films, maybe a mainstream film, and also Rocky Horror. Saturday nights always draw the most diverse crowds. Passersby always get to smell the different scents of the businesses - curry, incense, popcorn, wine. It's a little piece of bliss wrapped in the noise of people and cars.
