It varies and would largely depend on how old the house you purchase is, etc. I have lived in rural area my entire life.
Likely well and septic instead of city water. Make sure you understand if that will need to be replaced on sale as that could easily be >$10k.
Also electricity and heating. Will you need to have propane hauled in
Also, keep in mind traveling time. Do you have to go into bigger city to do grocery shopping? Are there things to do in your area? If not, need to factor in travel time for recreational activities. So time and fuel for your car.
According to my info -- no quality schools, hospitals, or stores! You may end up eating a long of junk food and a long commute to work! But there is more affordable housing, supposedly.
Also, small towns(?) have a reputation for not liking newcomers, so you should already have family there.
