When I lived in Manhattan, I shared my apartment with 10,000 cockroaches. I had to buy Cockroach Motel almost every day in the summer in NYC. Here, I have never seen more than 10 in my apartment in almost two years here. 

The bugs aren't too bad here at all.

Fairy tales don't tell children dragons exist. Children know dragons exist. Fairy tales tell children dragons can be killed. G.K Chesterton
