Let alone acerage. I don’t really envy anyone who “escapes” the city only to live in some run down rural property. Cutting grass at my parents 0.5 acre in Surrey takes like 1.5 hours twice a week in the summer.
Let alone like crops, general maintenance etc. lol I think most people would be woefully unprepared to live in a big detached home on a big property. It’s -non-stop- work.

Yep I agree with that. But to each their own. I think my friends prefer this lifestyle, even if it means spending weekends doing upkeep. It's peaceful, quiet, no crowds, and pets/kids can run around, stuff like that. It's hard to find that in an urban environment. Everything is a trade off.
