I was born in the last year of Boomers. Grew up in a town of approx 25k people. Just big enough but small enough to have people on the other side of town know you and call your parents if you acted like an idiot.
Grandparents lived in an 800 sq/ft house that they bought from the US Government during the Manhattan Project. The phone was in the hall and they would run to it when it rang on Holidays. Then the person answering the phone would announce for everyone to quiet down since the call was 'long distance'. They'd proceed to yell into the phone to cover the distance of the call.
It was a great place to grow up.
