The benefits of living in the country are obvious. And since the land provides income itself, the extra cost of transportation one has to assume to live in the country is well offset anyway.

Its the weird middle ground that has all of the downsides of the country and all of the downsides of the city all packed into one that we're talking about.

Hardly. Agriculture is hard work and not at all profitable unless the operation is at scale.

Some people really just want a back yard with a white picket fence their kids can play in
