Personally I don't think that you can say either way for definite. I live in the countryside but I have the normal amount of devices - including common or garden digital teles - that shove out digital hash by the bucket load. I mean, just about everything you buy these days has a wall wart SMPS to supply it. So, SMPS and digital noise everywhere. I suppose I stand a better chance of getting away from it in the countryside - like my outdoor aerial here - but otherwise if you've got normal digital stuff in the house like computers, teles etc etc, then no matter where you live you're going to get hash inside the house. An outdoor aerial in London? You tell me?
