Having worked for Silicon Valley companies and an Ivy League university, I think it's fair to say I'm a good engineer.
I hate big cities. They are so expensive and noisy and I abhor having to drive for more than 30 minutes at a time. The opportunity cost of all of the exciting marvels going on around you makes you feel like shit if all you want to do after work is drink and watch Netflix.
As great as big cities are, unless you are actively making the best of them, chances are you are living in the same ways most other people are: you use the same devices as everyone else to watch the same shows as everyone else. You get food delivered to your shelter-cubicle which anyone in a decently sized city can get as well. You go from boxes to boxes in boxes.
I like my small city. I like to get off the grid and go outside to hear nature. Turning off lets me channel my energy when I turn on.

I doubt I am alone.
