    I honestly think that the whole narrative of "criticizing rural America for how objectively worse it is compared to cities is classist" stems from racism. Conservatives are always talking about how bad inner cities and black neighborhoods are without offering real solutions because they're racist and privately believe that the people there are the problem. So when someone is critical about rural America, which is largely white, they are frightened by the fact that these sound observations dismantle their racist view of how community formation works and thus deflect with "classism." They can't handle the fact that multi-cultural/racial communities are astronomically more successful, influential, and far nicer to live in than theirs, so they had to fabricate the narrative that their communities are the "good old heart of the country" and anyone who criticizes how objectively bad they are is "looking down on them" to distract the people who live there from ever desiring improvements.

    I live in rural Italy (and did live in various rural realities here in the alps). Here's what it's like:
    I live in a small apartment in a village of like 2k people. The apartment is in a building that has a bar/pub/newspaper shop on the ground floor. In a 5 minute walk or less i can reach: 2 grocery stores (small but with everything you need day to day), a pharmacy, 5 cafés/bakeries, 2 pizza places, 2 restaurants, 1 bike shop, 2 clothing shops, the doctor's office, the post office, the police station, schools up to middle school, a waterpark. All around the village it's apple and grape orchards.
    Frequently on the weekend there's food festivals with traditional food and music and people get out in the street and dance.
    In a 5 min walk theres a bus station (to be fair buses are not that frequent), in 15 minutes i can reach the train station and in 30 min train rides go to the city where i work with EVERYTHING i might need.
    We still need the car to go to the big cheaper big stores in other villages, or some restaurants we like. My boyfriend works in a rural factory so he also needs the car to go to work. But we don't need a car EACH, one per household is fine. If i had any urgent need but no car, my village has all essentials.
    Vaush is ABSOLUTELY right. Rural life is good here. American rural life sounds like a nightmare. I can live in a small village and in my area there's apartment complexes (with commercial activities on ground floor, who wants to live on ground floor anyway!), but also multiple family houses, single family houses with gardens... Lots of choices!
    And in my opinion you don't even need a big lawn if i can easily walk to the parks and squares. My 1 room apartment doesn't feel that small.

      I grew up partially in a decently large city in Canada until I was 12, and then moved to a small town with less than 15k.
      At first it was great as a young kid, I had a lot of freedom to wander, but as I got older it felt empty and lifeless. The town was separated into 3 separate areas KMs apart with no transit whatsoever. Owning a car was basically a must. In my family of 4, 3 of us owned cars (my sister was too young to be able to drive). There was basically no future there. Your only options for careers were: Joining the Military, Trades (namely oil), and being stuck in a dead end service job.
      I am so glad I left. Shortly after I graduated my parents moved to an EVEN SMALLER place with only a barebones general store and the closest grocery was an almost hour trip by car.

      Do your homework! America didn’t always have this much of a hard on for cars.

Now there’s no public transit and people are constantly getting into car accidents. GM has ruined public transit in America and we just accept it because we don’t know any better. We live in the richest country in the world and somehow places with less money do things better than us. I don’t think all of the America needs to be a city but we do a bad job of using our resources. Cars are expensive, dangerous, and dirty we’re living in the past.

    I’m a 36-year-old African American guy who decided to trade the hustle and bustle of South Florida (Broward County) for the peace and quiet of 5 acres of pine forest. Born in Miami and having lived in South Florida my entire life, I sold everything that wasn’t nailed down and moved to the wild with my girlfriend, 4 Belgian Malinois, and 35 chickens (which somehow multiplied to 140). I built a home in the middle of my property, complete with a culvert, septic system, well, and power. The value of my property is pretty high, and moving to a rural area was the best decision I’ve ever made. My closest neighbor is half a mile away, and I couldn’t be happier. After a lifetime in the big city, this was a much smarter choice. Now I understand why so many white folks live like this. It cost me a pretty penny to start, but now I’m saving a ton and loving this amazing life
