I’ve got a buddy who is looking to do so, and good Internet service is a major issue. When you’ve had gigabit speeds, it would be tough moving back to tin cans on the end of a string speeds.

You can get decent DSL but the trick is to live near one of the big phone boxes, the size of a shed, that have their own electric service and meter. I didn’t know that when we bought land but got lucky as we have one of those 1/4 mile away. The installer said our signal is as good as his and he lives downtown near the phone company and infrastructure. 15Mbps for $70/mth is our max available service. We went with 10Mbps for $50/mth and can stream TV but not in 4k - 1080p. HD aka 720p is max. I can however watch 1080p youtube videos. All four of us can be doing stuff on our laptops while watching TV. Never tried skype/zoom etc.
