This only makes sense if you enjoy the English countryside.
I'm an Irishman. I grew up in the countryside, in the west, and spent 15 years living in London in my 20s and 30s. I can count on one hand the number of visits to the English countryside I made that weren't on the back of a motorcycle, and then, I didn't stop except for petrol.
The city is what I enjoyed, the chaos, the diversity, ambition, variety. No smaller city would be as good.
Your preferred metric is "time to chaos" I guess then?
"Time to something I haven't seen or experienced in the past 3 years"
Having spent more than 5 years in small towns, London has fixed my utter boredom.
I have lived my entire life in a a rural area, not even a town and it seems to me that every time I go to a city it is the same as the last. Everyone has their thing I guess.

Time to cow dung, the higher the better obviously.
That's also a problem with sheep, you know.

Time to sidewalk puke
Yes, obviously no small town has sidewalk puke, surely not in England!
Ok, and how long does it take to get there? That's time-to-sidewalk-puke.
