I'll take rural or semi rural over urban or metro living. At Udon Thani, both house we built were 20-30 minutes away from 'downtown', depending on time of day. Use to pop in to town 1000 - 1400 in between rush hours to enjoy the choice of vendors. Didn't want anything to do with evening events, congestion & drunks. Best of both worlds, peace & quiet, and access to all that is needed. Didn't know or bother with village folks, neighbors, and 2nd house, couldn't even see them, as half km away. Pretty much same now, at PKK, but less than 10 mins to/from surfside & 'downtown', and choice of 'limited' vendors. Closest neighor is 140 meters away, and nobody bothers us. BLISS for us. Most areas of TH, 'remote', only takes about 10-15 mins drive to get out of the madnesss of congested metro areas. Added benefit, land and housing is so much cheaper, and no neighbor hassles. I don't want to see, hear neighbors, or loudspeakers, or smell engine exhaust, and easily accomplished with minor thought & planning. Along with being less than 10 mins from a chain store for food. Makes everyday living so easy and comfortable.
