I hope the title makes sense. 
Generally speaking, in your opinion, what do you think would be the best country to grow up/live in, based on experiencing the music on the mainstream Top-50 charts?
I know i'm bias with this, but I would personally say that Australia would have to be one of the best countries to grow up in regards to chart music. Although the current Top-50 chart is far from great and the Australian music scene is in a dire state, we have generally always had a healthy mix of US and UK songs on our charts, as well as our own homegrown music and the odd song from other countries around the world. As a result, our Top-50 chart has traditionally been quite diverse.
In all honesty, I believe the US is quite ordinary in regards to it's music charts and I personally wouldn't want to grow up with the music on the Billboard Hot 100. Many foreign acts struggle to breakthrough in America, meaning that so many great songs/bands just go unheard of and don't achieve chart success at all.

With the exception of Australia and NZ, England would probably be the next best country for chart music.
