Suburbs -> city -> rural is a common life path for folks these days. I suspect a lot of those that make it out to the country are in for a surprise regarding amenities, socialization, and distractions/entertainment. Rural living filters out a lot of friends and family who see a one-way 30-minute drive as too long for a visit. I see that as a good thing :-)

Thats less than a work commute to Americans. A midwesterner will drive 3+ hours just to see family on a Saturday.
