Help! I'm a prisoner in a big suburban house!

Please, somebody, get me out of this fancy enclave of McMansions and SUVs!

    I live in a small, sweet, simple little coastal town of 80,000 people

    It really nurtures my spirit and everything that I could want in terms of services is available professionally.

    My house is a renovated 1960s house. A tenant lives in the downstairs suite with separate laundry room, kitchen and separate entrace. The rent pays my mortgage.

    I feel lucky to live here. I often tell people, what we offer is simplicity and nature appreciation. You won't like it if that's not your bag.

    —Anonymous
