It's been very quiet around here lately. I wonder where everyone is. Simplest explanation is that they're quiet people, I guess. Which is good late at night. Sometimes you wonder, though.
I prefer quiet as well, especially at night when I want to read or write in peace. It's funny you mention it though because any number of times we've walked around the neighborhood nearby it's rare for us to see people outside at all. It does make us wonder sometimes about Potemkin villages.
This time of year if you don't see anyone out at night they might simply be intimidated by the cold. If it's been going on since the warmer months that's a different story. You can't completely count out the Potemkin theory, I suppose.
