I grew up on a small city lot and loved how it was within walking distance to everything I wanted and I really miss that aspect of it...but I don't miss the people & how everyone watched everyone and were so in everyone's business.
With each home I've lived in I've chosen a bigger house and a bigger lot. Now for the first time ever, I'm out of a subdivision and am on a just few acres of land...tiniest house I've ever lived in, on the most land I've ever had. I love it! After being here, I think I could live in the middle of 100 acres & be happy...although then I'd worry it wouldn't take much for me to become a recluse. I do like that I'm still close enough to amenties though. I'm less than six miles from restaurants, grocery stores, meijer, walmart, etc. I'd hate to have to make a long trek into town to get things, so I could never live too far out in the boonies.
