I counted stars the other day, there were 80 where I live. Im pretty sure you could count more than 10.
On a clear winter night, maybe a few more than that - but generally it's pretty accurate.
I can just see a sickly yellow glow, most nights.

We have bad light pollution here too. It was midnight, and I could still see a glow of purple-red around the rims of the city. :x
