You know you live in the country when you have to have a PO box because the mailman doesn't come out there.

I live so far in the country.....my driveway is over 1/4 of a mile ......nearest town to shop is 25 miles....a 4x4 is a necessity, we have 3.....my parents say I live so far out in the sticks that I have to pump in my sunshine.
Or you have 2 of eveything (pump parts, vehicles, well stocked pantry) in case one breaks down or you run out. 15 miles to a grocery store? A mere commute...try 42 mi!! Of course, been there done, that.

.....back in semi-rural. Kind of like near by city conveniences.

You know you live in the country if your neighbor drives their tractor down the road- and rides their horse, and their riding lawnmower, and sometimes their quad to check the mail.
You're out in the country when ...
the county highway department cuts your phone line with a bush-hog.
I forgot to say what happens, next...
...then you have to drive god-knows how many miles?..
to find a pay phone to call the phone company...
when you don't have phone lines and cell phones don't work...satellite phones were my only option in rural maine...expensive as hell..cb and ham radio were hit and miss....yeehaw...my cell works here but not at the lake ...

That is my idea of the right place to be. Barely get cell service and that is it as far as intrusions from outside world.

You know you live on the country when you're neighbor damn near cuts their foot off with a chainsaw and you finally get signal to dial 911 just to hear them say you have to meet them 3 1/2 miles away at the end of your driveway. 911 won't come to my house, even with chainsaw wounds bound with a tourniquet. Driveway looks like a jeep commercial.
