All of this has made me more and more rural. I'm already in like a fringe sub-suburb and I'm looking to build on some land I have in the next few years.

I hope they continue to hate and look down on small town life myself, so they will stay away. I like the boring little places just called Cafe or Diner where I can grab a meal, the butcher shop attached to the gas station, a little bit of space around my house, etc. I don't want to be crammed into a tiny apartment and have to walk to some place named like "Avocado + Kale" where I can't actually park a car, just to not be able to order a cup of coffee without understanding all the pretentious BS they write on the menu.
