Hi Lance, I live in a dark sky rural community but it's not by design its due to fact that we are designated rural and there is no requirement for street lights to be put on rural roads, which is perfectly fine by me.
Also all of our block are from 5 acres to 20 acres so house lights are not a problem either.
I do have a slight skyglow from Canberra in the West but a lot of that is blocked by a small range of hills so I'm pretty lucky I feel.
Cheers
