What is RURAL?
Rural is defined as settlements with fewer than 10,000 people.
We think it's a small place, a village, with a community space, village hall, chapel, school, post office, mobile shops. It might be the distance from cultural opportunities, in the middle of nowhere, not passing through, off major roads, where others don’t go, few buses, occasional shops, a pub, mobile library service.
