I live in Stroud, a small town in England. The town is beautiful with hills around it. I enjoy living here because it's very interesting.
There is a nice town center. It's safe(安全的) for people to walk around as no one can drive on most of the streets. The town center has some common shops, like a butcher's(肉店), a cake shop and a clothes shop. There are some shops that I call “dangerous(有危险的)” because it's easy to spend lots of money in them!
