This is such a city-centric question, that I doubt many rural folks bothered to answer it.
46 years ago, we moved from London, where these things were available, to a rural Vermont town where none of them are except an elementary school (well, I can step outside and be in the woods; better than a park).
It's beautiful, quiet, and cheaper than city life.
When we drive, we combine visits to many of these amenities in one trip.
We don't regret our decision a bit.
