In the the story The Miller, His Son, and the Donkey, the time is not know and the geographical location corresponds to a rural area.

Explanation:

As most old folk tales, this one starts with the phrase: 'Once upon a time', this expression does not give us the exact time when it occurs, but it gives the idea that it happened long time ago when society didn't have too many technological advances. The fact that the man had a mill and a donkey supports this idea. On the other hand it mentions that he lived near the mill and in one opportunity he went to the town to sell his donkey; this fact makes us think that they all lived in a rural area in the country side.
