      No

      Also, unless you live literally in a cabin in the middle of fuck all nowhere, you exist in some form of a city. Just not a metropolitan one.

        “City” is doing some heavy lifting here. Not American? Or if so, have you not driven the rural highways?

          I’ve driven through 1 light towns in the past. A city of 3000 is still a city. Even 500 can benefit from trains, sidewalks, and bike lanes.

            Our camp is next to a town of 900, but you don’t have to go far until neighbors are far between. How thin a density till it’s not a city?

            And yeah, I’d go out there far more if I could hop a train.

        So far! I yearn for us to try out Arcologies. They are basically just cities without sprawl. A man can dream…

      If you hate cities, you should be encouraging everyone to move to them so you can have more rural space to yourself, no?
