Yes. The near-by town (8 miles away) got a flashing traffic light when I think I was in 4th grade. Then the next town had 3 stop lights. The city was 90 miles away.
It boggles my mind to think about no indoor plumbing in the US at that time. Should not be so surprised. When my wifes granma passed away she lived like single digits from chicago in a multiflat. The back still had these areas in the garage for cows. Blew my mind. Granted the area she was in was close to the old stockyards.
