Moving out of the city does not require privilege it requires an easy change in lifestyle.

Of course it means giving up fast food or even any restaurants or delivery.

No movie theater only local plays maybe only performed by high school kids.

It might mean giving up high speed internet

Cell phone reception might be bad.

It might mean you are a long way from hospitals and doctors

To make it affordable you might have to live in a small cabin since incomes in rural areas are lower but rents or home prices are much lower.

If you are healthy the distance to doctors and hospitals is not a deal breaker.

The rest is the easy/hard lifestyle change.

Imagine living in a cabin with your own well and septic tank. If you pick a good spot the well water will be the stuff of legend, pure safe unprocessed spring water from natures best source.

You will only need a tiny income so if you can find a job even a low paying one in a rural area with good land, good water, you can live the good life the author recommended.

Breath clean air

Drink the best water

Spend time with nature, walking outside, soaking up the sun and maybe even being paid for it.

Maybe you are a forest ranger or nature guide or farm hand or maybe you are an author. Maybe you are Amish or Mennonite.

That lifestyle was not the way I wanted to live. I grew up that way. I moved far away from my home so I could live and work in a technologically and socially advanced community. To me it was a privilege to move out of the woods. If you live in a food desert, move don't stay. I moved more than 1000 miles three times to find the work and community I wanted. When I started I had almost nothing so moving was easy. Now I have too much stuff and don't want to move.
