I got the idea of where I wanted to go as soon as I got Designer's Choice. Running my design by 2 DC vets to see where I need to improve.

In case you have a question of whether a certain place in the USA is considered 'rural', don't be afraid to send me a message!
Excited to see the creativity brought by the designers this round!  :conf:

You can always message me to see if the location could be allowed! Some towns just over 50k might be OK to use as a rural area. (Place classifications in the USA can be confusing sometimes.)

Can my leg be in two different states or no?
Yes, your leg can traverse state borders, as long as you stay within your region and follow the other guidelines. :tup:

I'll take #4.

And I could get in tons of arguments about what is considered rural as it can mean different things to different people lol but thank you for listing a clear criteria!

For technicalities, should we use the 2010 census population or a more recent estimate?

For simplicity's sake, just refer to the 2010 Census population, as those numbers are more widely available.

(If you ever run into a situation where a town had a population over 50k in 2010 but has since dropped below that in future years' estimates, then it would be fine.)

totumo, since you picked the number 16, you got the DESIGNER'S CHOICE!

It means that you have the freedom to pick whichever U.S. state you want to design in.

Good luck!

If you quote a post and then preview...you will see a drop down box with multiple FONTS.

Or just start a post.

You can choose between them, adjust size and color.

Its handy for formatting. You can copy and save to your own computer.
