Just before the pandemic hit, I made the decision to move back to the place I grew up, in rural northern Michigan, after a good deal of time out east; what I hadn't fully anticipated or recalled, was how remote it is up here, how far from any big cities, and how cut off (almost like an island) it is, due to the Great Lakes.
From here, it takes about 3.5 hours to reach a city of over 100,000 people and about 4.5 hours to reach Detroit...it's definitely been a challenge, living in a place that's so cut off from people.
How about everyone else? How close are you to what's called civilization?
