I live in a rural area on 3 acres, 1 hour north of SF. Last year, a couple, mid 30s, from the city, bought a house on our street to live out the "Country Dream". Their new country house was back on the market within 12 months. Many people who have never lived in a rural setting don't realize the work load that comes along with country living. Wells, septic systems, tree work and mowing, maintaining defensible space for wildfires, even the work prepping a garden... it takes a lot more time and sweat than many realize.
