My experience living in the suburbs was that it was awful. I it was a 50 minute commute in the morning, and an 1 hour plus in the afternoon ( on public transit). I was 2 km from the nearest restaurant/ bar ( Tim Hortons doesn't count). If I wanted to do any activities it was a 15 - 20 minute drive to the city centre and I would have to pay for parking. All the houses looked the same, the neighbours were just as ####ty leaving passive aggressive notes about guests parking. The only up side was that the house was bigger, which was nice because I could always use an empty room.
Favourite pub is still just a few minutes away, I have room for my 3 vehicles, I can play my guitars loudly without disturbing anyone, big backyard for my dog to run around, big garage for hobbies.

Short version is it's quieter, more space, less people
