How many here from a rural area?

Curious.

Are you living now in about the same size area as where you grew up?

Grew up in a town of 16,000, graduated with 78 people. Now live in Baltimore. Big difference.

My high school graduating class had 41.

Now live in Va. Beach--About half million here kinda spread out a little bit.

My Way

Born and raised in Myllykoski http://www.kartta.org/anjalankoski2/ . A small "village" of 6 000 people, nowdays about 5 000

After army I moved to Salo http://www.salo.fi/netcomm/default.asp , town of 20 000 that time, nowdays about 25 000.

Then to Helsinki with half million residents

And I won't move to a smaller place in Finland anymore, all the action is here. Lots of great pics mostly from Helsinki:
