I agree sounds and smells are more common in the city, but to me that isn’t an issue with introversion since that isn’t socializing? Seems more like sensory sensitivity, not introversion. Someone can have both of course.

I find this ironic as an introvert. I rarely interact with any of my neighbors since it was an apartment with constantly rotating rents. My apartment complex had more people than the rural town I grew up in. City living it’s easy to be one of the faceless masses. My rural family loves to talk to and gossip about neighbors. They constantly run into people they know at the few stores they have.

Edit: City life can have close knit communities. But it seems more opt-in than forced.

Yea, 3 year suspended license. I’m sure when she can drive again at 83, she’ll be a better driver. Honestly the standards (or lack thereof) is insane. People should be regularly tested regardless of age to see if they’re competent to drive.
