One living in a small rural community (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

villager

(Other definitions for villager that I've seen before include "All-giver? (anag)" , "Member of a rural community" , "Small town dweller" , "One lives in a place smaller than a town" , "Rural dweller" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
