As long as "elsewhere" is SV or some other big city, that grass will never be green enough for me.

Take your pick, I guess. I like cities, and I certainly don't want to feel like I'm a slave.

SV is a big suburbs, not a city. SF (and Oakland) are medium sized cities.

San Jose is over a million people. That counts as "big" in the US, I think? 10th most populous.

The "suburbs" between SJ-SF-Oakland range from very dense urban areas, to very sparse (and expensive) bedroom communities, to uninhabited (protected land) areas.

I think it's fair to loosely characterize SV as a big city, from almost all US perspectives.
