<p>By rural, I did not mean that as an insult. I went on to say that’s why we like it. Less stimulation and more attention on studying. However, within two miles of the school, in Hyde Park I think, a pig ran in front of our car on the way home. To me, that is rural, to others, it may not be. All of the open land / space is beautiful. I come from overbuilt suburbia so that is very nice. Its a matter of perception. But I hate concrete and neon, so rural is nice.</p>
