Do you consider your home to be urban/suburban/semi-rural/rural? When I first moved to this subdivision on the west end of the D.C. FedroSplat, it was right on the edge of semi-rural. Less than a mile north were cultivated fields; about a mile south was a horse barn and pasture; and the last housing development before the farms mostly took over was less than 2 miles west. Two decades later the suburbs have *completely* taken over the semi-rural area. You have to go another 6 miles west to get out of suburbia now... at which point you pretty much crash straight into full rural.
Is there a fuzzy cover on the lid of any toilet in your home? Are they anathema? I second your motion of "anathema".
How far do you have to go to the nearest library? Stipulating that this question probably was intended to mean *public* library, the nearest public library to us is less than a 10 minute walk away. It actually takes longer to drive there, park, unpark, and drive back than it does to walk there and back. (The driving delays are on the return trip: left turns at two major intersections so there's typically a sizable waiting time at those lights.)
