Thank you for this piece. I can relate entirely. If you can make it work, and please forgive the advice from a stranger, may I suggest moving back close to your hometown, wherever that may be. It was the best decision I ever made.

Excellent writing.

Given you seem to enjoy the physical act of walking, you might want to consider that when looking at suburbs. It's a form of (mild) exercise too and when you're no longer able to do that you might have to replace it with running or something, which isn't going to be as intellectually stimulating as walking around Manhattan and noticing yogurt has been replaced by weed. So there's actually two needs that are being fulfilled here: novelty and physical activity. Something to think about.
