  1. Some cities are worse than others, but if you really want to see a star-filled sky you have to be far away from any major population centers. This site has world-wide maps of sky glow:

  2. Living in a city is why you can't see the sky. Look outside at all the lights. Get out in the country on a hill. You will see the orange glow of cities from many miles away. This glow is preventing you from seeing the sky.

    Do a Google search on light pollution.

  3. go get a cheap pair of binoculars and you will see more stars from where you are at right now. Check out a sporting goods store. They are usually cheap there. I can only see about the same amount fo stars as you, but with my binos 10x50 in size its really great.

  4. On a mountain peak, like Pike's Peak in Colorado, where you're above the earth's pollution;  also the moon or a space vehicle.

  5. Your best bet would be to go to a city in the desert. Since they have dry climates, there's not nearly as much haze in the sky, which tends to diffuse light pollution and make it worse.
