People of lemmy, would you live in a rural area? Why or why not?

I live in a town of about 2000 people. It has a grocery, a liquor store, and a hardware store. It's rural enough. I would never live anywhere I can't walk to get a bag of chips. Rural sounds good until the power goes out in a snow storm and your lane way is 7 miles long and the plow guy ain't coming.

If you have a 7 mile driveway, and the plow guy isn't you, you fucked up.
