yes and no. When we are all enlightened we can feel bliss living in a cave. But right now most of us aren't so environment and people we surround ourselves with will affect us a good bit. Different places can put you into a positive state or a negative one. People we surround ourselves with can either be supportive or destructive.
For the response-ability part, even if we our currently living in a not to so nice or positive area we need to take response-ability for choosing it and be response-able for trying to get away from it.
