Several of my RVing friends have spreads of 160 acres or more, including woodlands, streams, ponds. Probably also work outdoors 20-30 hours a week, though officially retired, but thats not recreation. They still hook up the RV and go to one of our lakes for a week or two, probably six to twelve times a year.
You'll have to learn from experience whether a patch of your own woodland in a rural development meets your needs for the out doors. Some people, their suburban back yard, country club membership, or walking to the city park is enough. Some are happy looking out the window at the buildings around them. Because you used a RV to escape from the suburbs, I don't think you should be quick to give it up. Your own little patch of woods might not be enough.
