My current situation: I live in an apartment ~30 km away from the next big city (where I used to commute to by train before Covid enabled me to have home office). The house is in a nice cul-de-sac, and when you look out of most of the windows you can't even see a car most of the time (Ok, they're in the underground parking garage between the houses, but out of sight). However, at night, when it's nice and quiet, you can still distinctly hear the buzz of cars, trucks, motorbikes etc. on the freeway which is ~2 km away. Shows that you can't really escape the effects of automobile traffic, unless you want to live somewhere so secluded that you need to use the car to do anything, and add to the problem...
