You are correct. If it’s not for a cert. or rating a cross country could be from small Ville to Podunk 5 miles away. However, Keep in mind, if you ever want to acquire your IR, or commercial cert the x-c must have a landing 50nm from your point of departure! I'm sure any future employer would have the same requirement if they have a X-C requirement!
Make a note of this too, The ATP cross country requires 50NM as well, but there is no requirement to land 50nm away, only that a landing be made at a point other then your point of departure!
