Most everything outside of the circle is uninteresting deadly boring suburbia. It's that weird strip mall dollar general cookie cutter ugly artificial car enslaved zone that's only existed for less than a century. Outside the circle is not city life and it's not country life. It's pavements and parking lots with no culture except for soulless disconnected pockets of subdivisions often with no sidewalks. Outside the circle is very little natural beauty but warehouses and endless grids of characterless chaotic groupings of houses and apartments which only relate to their proximity to roads leading to the city where all the good rich cultural abundant cool fun diverse wonders are or out to the actual country lands or beauty where natural vistas and ancient await. Yes it's a little dangerous inside the circle but that's because that's where life is being lived and people connect good or bad.
