Even if you WFH, it’s not just a 40 min drive to commute, it’s a 40 min drive to do anything. There’s like one park and a handful of restaurants in town. In the city I have trails, paths, and dozens of destinations within a 20 minute bike ride. You ride for 3 mins in Niverville and you’re in a farmer’s field, then I guess you just turn around and go home? How many times can you go to Dairy Queen in a year? I guess if you’re a “my home is my castle” type who never really wants to leave the house then it’s fine.
Not all small towns are like that, lots of them have a walkable main street, and access to nature trails and outdoor recreation. But Niverville is literally just houses in an open field. I guess some people like it. I just feel like I would be bored out of my skull after 2 weeks.
