No one would have given two shits about grunge music, rave culture, and the rise in pot use...until some 15-year old kid and his buddies got into it all.
I'm not trying to start a city-suburbs war here...you are entitled to live where you choose. But all that sorta thing was looked as "freakish" until the early 90s...when all the madness started seeping into bedroom communities.
(And quite frankly, I'll put my neighborhood here in the city up against any suburban neighborhood. We'll match 'em on amenities, crime rates, etc. Good living is still possible in the big city. That's it...I'm running for City Council. ;-) )
And I lived in a small town when it was still uncool to be a freak...heh.
