@andrewbriscoe Oh yeah, I get that appeal. I've been wanting to live somewhere that's a bit remote and quiet, while simultaneously being close enough to the city proper so as not to be too isolated.
Lived in a farm in southern Oregon for three months that was 15 min drive to "town" which was a Safeway and a racist antique store. And a 45 min drive to Coos Bay, which also leaves a little something to be desired. Bit too remote or too lacking. I might be looking for the best of both worlds trying to have convenience and solitude 😅
