Turtle Changed home to get better mpgs???

Just wondered if anybody else out there has picked a place to live specifically at least mostly percentage wise as a place to get great fuel mileage? I intentionally picked a place to live where there are three lanes on the freeway even out in the country, it only has 1 somewhat large Hill, which I can by pass if I choose to drive a flatter and much quieter two lane road that parallels it. I then live another 15 minutes off the freeway, the area that is almost traffic free. The two lane roads are mostly flat, and straight, so if someone does come flying up behind me oh, it's very easy to just wave them on by. And except for the stop sign on the off-ramp, there is only one more stop sign before I get home. That route bypasses the little town that I am nearby. If I want to go through the town, it has a population of about 750, and not even so much as a Amber flashing light, let alone any stop lights or stop signs if I'm on the main route. Just wondered if anybody else thinks this way???
