Depending on the town, it might be very religious, which means everything will be closed on Sundays. Restaurants, grocers, hardware stores, all of it.
Also, in the US, rural/small town vibes usually mean conservative politics are what goes. If it’s a bedroom community, meaning most everyone commutes to the nearest city to go to work, then that’s less likely, but there’s no knowing until you’re there.
This is a good point which I’ve considered and looked into a bit. This is in Ontario, Canada. The small town voted Liberal in our recent federal election. The bigger city I’m leaving voted Conservative. Curious as it’s usually the other way around!
