It is, in my observation, a popular HN myth that amenities only exist in hyper-dense and expensive cities. But it's not true.

In my very suburban (low density suburban, surrounded on two sides by forest) area the library is a 10 minute walk away at toddler-speed so my child has been an avid visitor as soon as started reading a tiny bit. Schools are also walking distance (high school will be a bit farther, but within easy cycling distance, about 2 miles). And yes, we have internet in the suburbs.
