Would your children be of higher quality (however you would define that) than the local or global average and be cared for better?
@special-boy
bf and I are above average IQ, hopefully leading to children with above-average IQ.

but we will not be earning so well with the careers we are aiming for. and we might never be able to afford a house with a garden or whatnot in the current market (like 600,000EUR here).

we will be able to pay for private kindergarten, but probably not for a private school. and public schools in Germany are the fucking worst. I do not want to expose my kids to that.
@kaia @special-boy Only housing in the middle of nowhere is affordable in germany and those areas are (in my opinion) very depressing to live in.

@NeonPurpleStar well, one has to decide if one wants the bullshit plastic world available in the cities or affordable living somewhere which isn't going to be a slum in a few years.
plenty of regions all over germany which are nice, just waiting to be filled with new families making them even nicer ;)

I was born and grew up in a city of 1 million inhabitants. I cannot bear the idea of living in a remote/sparsely populated area.

you could try it, but i'd say that you really go to somewhere with free space around your dwelling.

those rural residential areas where houses are close together are really crazy, probably more maddening than big cities, i agree on that :)

@bonifartius @special-boy @kaia I have tried it for 4 years, and now matter how hard I tried to get accustomed, it just wasn't for me.

I need the buzz of a large city in my life otherwise I get depressed.
