There was a really interesting MythBusters episode where they essentially replicate what you’re talking about. Albeit with an “n” of 1 or 2 and a very small scale, but still interesting.

I’ve lived out in the rural before. I’d only do it again if there was a pharmacy that was open more than 9-5 mon-fri within a reasonable driving distance, a grocery store, and at least one good restaurant close by (it’s nice to be removed from other but boy does cooking for yourself every meal get old fast).
