Can you imagine the view of the sky from a city with all lights turned off?

Get some distance from cities and big towns and see for yourself. 
https://www.lightpollutionmap.info/ will show you where you might get to, don’t worry about getting to totally dark, just outside the really bright bits. Should allow you to see the milkyway with no problems.  Binoculars will reveal countless strings of stars. end of summer into autumn is best as the milkyway stretches overhead.

I don’t get under those skies often and I am aware that “proper skies” can be another level “better”. The darker you go the easier it is to see stuff... of course remembering that the moon also ruins the views.

good luck on finding somewhere dark.
