Best Answer

Depending on the geography in question, life for your average individual ranged from turbulent and difficult, to slow and predictable. Boston was known for having more intellectuals per capita than most of the population centers, and had a correspondingly higher standard of living. Areas which were agriculturally focused, such as those in rural Pennsylvania, and the like, experienced changes at a slower pace, and thus were less directly effected by tensions with the British government. Finally, it depends on which ASPECT of life you were looking to explore. For example, the answer could vary considerably if you wished to explore economic history in this time period.
