Proper rural at least has some advantages, but bland, single-family home suburb whose development was built on what used to be a forest beside a farmer’s field doesn’t count. Like, if someone has a house way out because they just like that kinda thing then I’m still wondering what they’re up to out there, if they’re ok, and what they’re planning on doing if they ever have kids but at least they can actually stay up late with a fire in the backyard. Of course, most of them are too scared of having a septic tank to ever get far enough away to make it worth it.
And yea, trapping your kids far from stuff because you’re anti-social is extra weird.
It's not weird, it's just sad, in my opinion. So many opportunities missed out on.
