> The main reason anyone lives in a city in the US is for their job.

This is a failure to acknowledge the existence of values systems other than your own. I live in a city because I like being around people. I spent the first 30 years of my life in rural and suburban areas, which was enough to tell me that they're not for me. If they're for you, then good for you. But other people can think differently.



what I meant is that the most common reason people live in cities is for their job. I didn't mean that for each person that lives in a city, the most important factor to them living there was their job. The usage of "anyone" here was indeed wrong. Thanks for pointing that out.
