I have to ask why there is a sewer system in a rural community though, that doesn't seem like it ever makes fiscal sense.

Agree but sometimes there a regulations on the size or quantity of septic systems allowed in an area depending on the water table, neighborhood etc.

Some parts of my town, those closer to more populous and densely developed neighboring municipalities, have sewer because an independent sewer commission exists that leases capacity from those neighbors. It is a great thing that allows us some more urban benefits while remaining rural. We do not have the ability to increase sewer capacity.
