In theory, this would be the safest social distancing scenario, relatively isolated house, stocked up with groceries, work from home (if at all), and limited social interactions with precautions (and anything delivered from outside sanitized). These places will also be ideal for quarantines in case of infection, too (sans the quick access to medical help, if needed).
