City folks may need to stay in the city.

There was a chicken farm here for generations, many decades. They did bbq too anything u wanted to whole fresh turkey dinners. The condos were recently built nearby and the smell of the manure in the wind put the chicken farmer out of business. Dam city people move to the country.

When the smell of my neighbors horses comes my way it's heaven I love the smell of the barn animals and his rooster. Sounds better than a boombox. I'm from the city as a kid.

Inside me theses a red neck trying to get out.

Good answers!

Yep, we lost our 5-stand sporting clays range and the attached colossal, world class, competition clays range that ran along a creek when a bunch of developers put houses all around it.

I couldn't agree more.

Try a sheep farm after one or two of them have died(from a former sheep farmer w/nine years experience).

Not around here, we bury any deads and on pasture there isn't a smell. Properly kept there shouldn't be much. Only when we clean the corrals from winter is there a smell and not for long.

My property is isolated on three sides, but my kid pasture is pie-shaped and its narrow end borders a road and across that road is a small 5 acre place.
A couple of years ago the place was for sale. I had about a dozen does and 15 or 16 odd kids in the pasture. I was checking the welded wire wrap I keep on all the trees along the fence line (goats LOVE AZ Cypress bark). The goats were following me along the fence line hoping for tree treats. A new black BMW SUV with CA plates pulled up in the driveway across the street and a family got out and started looking around.
By and by the husband came over to the fence. Didn't say hello, how are you, or introduce himself, just said "Do you always have this many sheep?"
I said they're not sheep and no, I don't always have this many. I only bred 8 does this year, next year I'm breeding 14!
He gathered up his citified brood and took off. Good riddance.

When Dad built our "Cabin" in the Allegheny's in the mid 70s; he built about 100yds off the hard road to avoid a 1/2 mile driveway, you couldn't see another house from the front porch...........today 6 in line of sight.....

Now weekends are like going from the "burbs of the Burgh" to the "burbs" of Somerset County.....

As a kid I hiked the ridge behind the cabin and NEVER ran into anyone..... today it uncommon not to have at least one 4wheeler interrupt your woodland peace!

Open carry seems to keep them moving!!!LOL

My two pet peeves:

1) People who buy houses next to railroad tracks and complain about the noise.

2) People who buy tract houses in suburban neighborhoods and get ticked off that there are kids in the neighborhood.
