Metric citizin here, nobody uses “miles” here. We just go with the metric system:
1000 metres = 1 kilometre
We use the wording from your example “i live 22 kilometres from town”
Interesting trivia piece is that in swimming and running the 1500m is sometimes refered to as a “metric mile” because a mile is 1600ish.
That’s fine and I believe that is true for your country or region. Though remember there are other metric countries. E.g. the nordics still stick to it.
That’s not a mile.
