I wouldnt make a decision like that without doing a business plan, including market research, budget etc.

Who will run it? Do you have experience? What happens if one of you get sick or injured?

So many businesses fail because people dont create a realistic plan going in, which includes planning for contingencies. And often opening a small business is just buying a job. I'm not knocking the idea per se. But I've seen clients get into real trouble when they jump on an idea without planning first. Sometimes a basic SWOT would have shown them how unrealistic it is.

There's a reason there are so many ghost towns - there isnt the required economy to keep them afloat. It would be different if it was a known tourist area. Maybe spend a few weekends watching passibg traffic in and out if the town. Survey the residents. Find out what they want. Talk to the local council - most have business liaisons. And the local traders association. Do lots of research before you jump in with 2 feet and that's just on the business opportunity. The persobal pros and cons are another thing to work out only if tge business plan stacks up.
