      How are you defining rural? I live in a rural area and have no trouble seeing the Milky Way from my back yard.

        "Not urban." Areas like yours are becoming increasingly rare.

          I live in Quebec, so most of it is rural. Is it that bad where you are?

            Most of the US, even in rural areas, have too much light pollution to get a good view of the Milky Way at night.
