Seeing in city vs countryside

[astrosatch]

Hi.

Is there difference in seeing in town where there are houses and roads and especially in winter with chimneys and heated houses vs countryside where is grass and forest? I have telescope on balcony looking above block of flats. Would my autoguiding improve if I change the scene to more remote site?

Thanks Carole. This really brings hope for my imaging.?

Local heat sources are, indeed, terrible for the seeing.
