Bro, lovely places exist in almost every state. I've lived in the country and on acreage in East Texas. On the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State. In Mississippi. In Arkansas. In Virginia. The whole **** country is outback, except for major cities and their suburbs - and I've lived in those, as well. Hell, Vegas was both, rolled into one. I lived there for nine years. I lived a completely suburban lifestyle - swimming pool, manicured lawn, big lot, fruit trees, pet pit bull, and wide, fast moving roads making easy commutes - all with the population, the shopping, and entertainment options of a major city. The notion that the lifestyle I currently enjoy is some rare and hard to find thing is simply not true. 

I said it before and I will say it again - I don't think your issue is geography. If it were, you wouldn't let yourself be made miserable by it. You would just move to some place more to your liking. 

I can tell you this much - and vegas (the poster) will vouch for me. Las Vegas has a couple of million people, and you can have peace and quiet, and you can have a smooth-as-silk commute. Maybe your area is just run by ***. Or maybe you live in a city that is centuries old and not built for the modern lifestyle. It sounds to me like your urban planners are just maroons. Vegas is well run, and not terribly expensive. Maybe try that. It's a dry heat. .
