I can't bear to live in rural because of relative lack of modern conveniences. But I have to say I envy the community spirit that rural areas tend to have. The feeling of community is slowly dying even in my mid-sized home city. The least talked about aspect in the modern political discourse is individualism versus collectivism, and this is what many people missed to explain the rise of populism.
