All intelligent people choose to live in the inaka? That seems like a
ridiculous overgeneralization. It sure sounds like you are assuming that
your preferences are the only valid ones, which sounds very egotistical. I
hope that you are different offline.

There are some conveniences that I miss living in Gifu, but we made the
decision to remain there after I retired. Having said that, I am not so
egotistical that my choice of location is the only valid one.
