Yeah, I live about a mile and a half from the very centre of a city. It's small in terms of cities, population of 200,000, but it still gives out a good bit of light pollution. I sometimes lie on top of my kid's climbing frame in the garden and look at the night sky. When I looked in the direction of the city it's almost always got a sort of faint orange light haze, whereas when I look east in the opposition direction out into the rural areas, the sky is so much more impressive.
