As someone who prefers living in actual rural areas, the suburbs are the worst of both worlds. You've got a tiny plot of land you can't do anything with except grow grass, you're as surrounded by people as you are in a city, you have no public amenities and no space for good private ones, and you still have to drive everywhere.
Absolutely - I have farmers in my family. They also hate suburbs. It's neither rural nor urban.
