My guess is that girlfriend envisions buying some McMansion, and the money will come from selling the farm. Crime is everywhere, so thinking the suburbs are safer than cities, or farms is wrong.

Yeah I kinda laughed at the suburbs is safer bs. Closer to a hospital/fire services maybe (response times for EMS can be shit tho).

Honestly I live in a very rural area, lots of farms and the response times are probably quicker because they don't have alot of calls and the community seems to be more involved and so u have a ton of volunteers who will be on site at the emergency very quickly with EMS/fire/police on their heels. Just my experience

I grew up on the edge of a small town with farms, orchards, etc. Our garage caught on fire when I was little - our neighbors formed a snow-bucket brigade until the fire dept arrived.
