Moved from the city to a small town, changed everything

Grew up wanting to escape our small town and spent 15 years in the city working finance. Wife and I decided to move back when we had kids and I thought I'd hate it. Turns out I was wrong about basically everything. Kids actually play outside, I know their teachers, my dad is involved in their lives in a way he couldn't be 1000 miles away. I'm coaching youth soccer which I never thought I'd enjoy. The money is less but so is the stress. I miss the food options and anonymity sometimes, the fast pace of things, but I gained actual time with my family and a sense of community I didn't know I needed. Weird transformation honestly.
