I thought it was an inappropriate question to ask and it was focusing the interview on the wrong subjects.

Completely inappropriate question, no matter how you answer it’s a wrong answer. Idyllic? You’re a little pie in the sky for us. Average? The Truth? People usually have a mix of all and what if you’re delving into something the person may be anxious or unsure about answering. Horrible question, I’d have asked why do you ask?
