    i've lived in areas like this. it's not really great. don't know
    what you mean by 'high street', though.


    It depends.

    I think living in a village with 200 population tops (in the most
    active season) is nice, the only thing you are losing is services
    - stuff like cinemas and the like - but if you don't need to deal
    with a homeowner association, that alone is a big win in my book.

    I mean, I used to live in a condo when I was a kid and I always
    woke up cold in the mornings because the community could not agree
    on a schedule to turn the house heating on and off. Now I can burn
    as much wood in the fireplace as I like or as much oil as I can
    afford.


    i dont like living in a little area where everyone knows eachother.
    people are dicks and usually hillbilly types like those environments.

    i lived in a small town and everything closed early. the only good food was
    at the bowling alley. the police were predatory on everyone about speeding
    or whatever.

    i'm in a small city now and there's nothing good here so people go to the nearby larger city.

    That is the problem right there XD

    Here, it is too small to have any store at all, so nothing closes early. There is no police station or presence at all either, which is absolutely glorious because you can drive your unlicensed tractor or whatever and nobody will pester you about it.
