“I'll take my country life as a remote worker going on 8 years. Trees, forest, wildlife, fresh air, backyards. 5 minutes walk or 1 minute drive to a shop for groceries, hardware, lumber, restaurants, kid parks.”

My neighborhood in Chicago has all of these things and I can walk to the train for work every day.

And my neighbourhood in Edinburgh has all of that too, with a 20 minute walk to my office

I recall when I worked for a while in Edinburgh a 20 min walk from princess st was considered out in the boon docks.
