What type of area do hunters/anglers reside in?

[Mccallister25]

Was chatting with some buddies the other day, and we were talking about how (at least around us) rural areas are gradually getting smaller due to development. It seems that small towns are getting larger and some rural folks are having to adapt. It’s got me curious as to where my fellow anglers/hunters are living. Just for fun ?

Where I started was country, now it’s suburban. I doubt it will ever make it to metro, but it’s trying.?

I grew up in a town of about 1300 with no large cities around. the closest small cities are 20 miles in opposite directions. I moved away to get closer to work. Got divorced and when I met my current wife she was living right here in the town I'm from and where my parents still lived. So I moved right back. We have an active gold mine that has added a few hundred to that number but I doubt it will ever grow much in my lifetime. It's a great place to live, but you have to drive a ways to find good work unless it's the mine. I work from home now, but the company I work for is in Charlotte, NC.

   I was born and raised a farm boy. Because I married a city girl, I've lived in town since 1979. I don't care whether I live in town for nineteen thousand, four hundred and seventy three years, I will NEVER be a townie. I am country born and bred, and nothing will ever change that.

   SO .... I call country home, even though I live in town.      jj

Suburban - gotta have a job that pays big city salaries with boat parking somehow...

Rural here where I live, town of 1068 people with no stop lights. 

Drove 80 miles a day to work.....when I worked.

I live in a small "city" of around 13k people neighbored by a couple of towns of around 8k population and then much less in other directions, so it's like living in light suburbs with rural surroundings -- the best of both worlds.

 

Although if I could afford a rural place say on a lake, I would be all over that.

Hunters and Anglers live in towns with less than thousand people and cities with over a million people. Regardless where they live they all share the same passion for the outdoors.

I grew up in A suburb but now I live very close to downtown Knoxville. I’m not sure if I would call it metropolitan but it’s pretty crowded on game days. If you drive 30-45 minutes in any direction you are pretty much in rural areas if not wilderness

Grew up in a town that had more cows than people lol. I lived in town though then moved to a neighboring town a little bigger when I got married. Divorced now and back to another neighboring town that’s like middle size between the two. Currently in a house in the country part of town but bought a house right in town that was to good of a deal to pass up its wayyyyy bigger than where we are now and with kids that’s kinda important. It’s still a small town just have neighbors now.
