Are You Ready to Make the Switch:
Here's How You Can Adjust from Big City to Small Town Living



When moving, the thing that most people dread is the 101 small details that you need to attend to. There's the cleaning, organizing, packing, arranging for movers, making sure that the old house is cleaned before you leave � all these tiny tasks, when put together, seem to be insurmountable.

How much more stress do you think you would have to undergo if you are making the move from big city living to small town living? Those who have been used to the hustle and bustle of the big city may not necessarily be used to the quaintness or quietness which is usually associated with small town living.

However, there is no need for you to worry that much. Remember that you can always prep yourself up for whatever types of challenges may come along. This is especially true since you are moving from low quality to a better quality of life!

When you live in a small town, the air that you will breathe is fresher, you can walk around without having to worry about getting mugged, you don't have to squeeze yourself into your small apartment quarters � and you don't have to surrender yourself to living at a fast pace.

Things to Remember when Making the Switch from Big City to Small Town Living


The number one thing that you need to remember when making the switch from big city to small town living is that you should prepare yourself mentally and emotionally for it. Just keep in mind the new experiences that you will gain, the slower pace of life that you will get to enjoy, the new people that you will meet and the new lessons that you will learn along the way.

Here are a few things that you need to keep in mind when making the switch from big city to small town living.

1. Do your research and learn about the town's unique charm and quaint personality.
The good thing about small city living is that each one has its own unique charm and over the years, the entire town will take on a quaint personality. Prior to the move, visit the town and see what it is like.

Talk to the people who live there and ask about what draws them to that particular town. More often than not, the charm of small towns is in the people � and you just might make a few initial acquaintances when you visit.

2. Get your bearings when you visit the small town that you want to live in.
Visit a grocer and ask where the local hangouts are. Small towns may not have that much to offer in terms of entertainment, but there could be a drive which the locals visit on a regular basis.

3. Be flexible, be proactive in mingling with the locals and enjoy the experience!
Your 'bad' big city habits may not be that easy to get rid of once you start living in a small town � but the effort is well worth it. Be flexible enough to make some changes where and when you need to, be proactive but polite in mingling with the locals � and finally, just enjoy the experience of moving from the big city to a small town!
