What I always used to call "subrural" was when I was in Virginia (around Fredericksburg, I think?), and you could tell you were in what they thought were suburbs, but the houses were all just a little bit too far apart, and there was just too much empty space everywhere, and it just sort of subconsciously ate at the back of my mind like I was a character in a Lovecraft story starting to notice the cracks in the universe where the Great Old Ones were leaking through.

It clearly wasn't urban enough to be suburban but also not rural enough to be rural, and my brain just didn't know how to process it.
