Except, I live in rural UK (Lincolnshire) and the nearest town with a bank (Boston) is 7 miles along roads that do not have pavements. Where its dangerous to cycle and even more dangerous to walk.
It would be just about possible to live without the internet but getting to the shops would be dangerous without a car. There's little public transport with the nearest once a day bus accessible via a bus stop 1.5 miles along a dangerous to walk road.
17% of the UK (just under 10 million) live rurally in the UK.
