> very few people fit the stereotype you're putting forth Pretty sure everything they said can be verified by data. But of course those are averages and generalizations, it's not that every single person in a rural area is a white straight Christian conservative, just like not every single person in a big city is a non-white LGBT atheist progressive. But you will find more people with the former traits in rural areas, and more people with the latter traits in urban ones. Like if you just looked at the list: > Rural communities are often more religious, more conservative, lower income, lower educated, and have a lot less access to opportunity. Cities also mean that there's often a critical mass for many interests and minority groups. Are you LGBT? Are you a religious or racial minority? Do you have hobbies that might be more unique? Cities have the critical mass for so many groups of people. What part of that is wrong? Yes, you can find some rural areas that buck the trend, but overall you're likely to run into these issues. Just like there are some issues more common in big cities: more expensive, more traffic, lines everywhere, people being ruder/indifferent, etc.
