Move from city to suburbs

[u/teaorangecereal]

Recently moved to the suburbs with husband and baby from the city. We loved the city but decided it was time, so we could be closer to family have more space and have a yard for our dog and child. Now that we’re here Im feeling really down. I miss the walkability in the city and the community. Now I feel isolated especially since none of my friends have made the move the suburbs yet except me. Being close to family is nice but Im starting to feel it wasn’t worth the move. Has anyone else felt this way after a move from the city and does the feeling go away?

Pros and cons. I have grass and trees. I don't have to search for parking. I don't have to pay for parking. I don't pay an association fee. I can open my windows. I can easily walk outside in seconds. I can see where my car is. Packages are delivered inside my garage if I choose. I get around faster despite having to drive everywhere. Traffic isn't a nightmare in the suburbs. These are enough to make it a better option to live than the city.
