In the future consider not living in a rural area, but in the suburbs. I've worked as a package handler for FedEx in my past -- delivering a package to a remote location, even if 1.5 miles from a paved road sucks. If you choose to live rurally -- be prepared for the consequences such as mail delivery issues, self managed water sources, intermittent power, etc.
- artificialLimbs 5y agoJust moved to a rural area 2 years ago. Will never move back to the suburbs. My water tastes better than any city water. We do shut off the well when it gets below 20 or so (a few times a year max), but it’s no big deal because we always see it coming and stock a few gallons. Mail issues have never been a problem. Our power has been more stable out here than in the city of 50k where I moved from. Gig fiber here with massive upgrade potential in the future because they ran 12 strands to my house. I only hear crickets and wind at night. Occasionally the dogs if they have to run the coyotes off. Why would I move back to the city?
