A small rapidly growing town gradually being surrounded by housing. A few foxes but not a lot of wildlife apart from birds and mice some Red Kites fly around having been nurtured as a rare species, but they may not last as they are now seen as a hazard to planes.

My wife and I live in the 'burbs if ever there was one. Our tiny town ( population probably about 12,000 ) is nestled in the valley of a mountainous area of central New Jersey. Nearby is the Watchung Reservation, and we usually have a pretty good stream of deer coming and going all the time. Our yard too is 'animal friendly,' and my wife never minds if they help themselves to certain flowers and plants. Some days she likes to sit outside on her hammock and just surround herself with nature . . .

I live in the suburbs. However, there are a lot of woods. Name the typical wildlife in the Baltimore Area, and I have it in abudnance.

I live in a town of about 120000, within commuting distance of a very big city, but there's also some 'country' not too far away. So we do occasionally see deer (though I've never seen any im my backyard - it's fenced), lots of rabbits and hence also foxes, coyotes and the hybrids this area is famous for - coywolves...
