    It all will vary across cities, townships, etc. that are more restrictive.

    Many counties across the U.S. have the rule regarding not shooting within 1500 feet of an occupied dwelling to avoid hunters shooting into residences by accident. This rule in some sense is a baseline starting point.

    Of course, there are all sorts of exceptions related to defending your family from criminals or dangerous animals, gun ranges not being included, etc. etc.

    Which means that Joe Biden is completely vindicated, when he prefaced it with his statement that he was in a rural area surrounded by woods. Assuming his state has a law on the books like this...

    "...Whoever discharges a firearm as defined in section one hundred and twenty-one of chapter one hundred and forty, a rifle or shotgun within five hundred feet of a dwelling or other building in use, except with the consent of the owner or legal occupant thereof, shall be punished by a fine of not less than fifty nor more than one hundred dollars or by imprisonment in a jail or house of correction for not more than three months, or both..."

    Amun Ra knows less about firearm laws than he knows about trading.

    No, what Joe Biden said was " we live in a wooded area that is somewhat secluded". You're an idiot for not knowing what he said or an idiot for thinking that describes a rural property.

    Does this look rural to you?

    Yeah, it looks rural to me. As far as me getting his quote wrong, sorry. I understood his context. What state does he live in, since you seem to have him pinned down on Google Earth?

    If you are referring to me, I'm not a "liberal". Far from it. :-\

    No, it's not rural. It is wooded and somewhat secluded. Wilmington Delaware has 70,000 residents.

    Per USDA, rural areas consist of open countryside with population densities less than 500 people per square mile and places with fewer than 2,500 people.
