One uncounted point is frequency of novelty.

Generalizing, I'd say younger people (18-35) are more default-comfortable in novel situations. As we age, people's tolerance for that seems to decrease.

And, on the whole, I'd say that rural life provides less novelty than city life. Or at least novelty within tighter bounds.



I still crave novelty, in that I'm always wanting to discover new things, go new places. But I don't feel the need to be so "busy" as is common in a big city.
