If you're from a rural area, does being in a big city make you uncomfortable? Or, if you're from an urban area, does the country make you uncomfortable?

I grew up and currently live just outside a major metropolitan city in the US. I flippin’ love the city and its surrounding smaller cities or suburbs. I love the diversity of people and cultures, the many different places to see and visit. I love the energy.

Conversely, when I have to be out in a very rural area (like I am today), I get really uncomfortable. Far too many miles between gas stations, stores, or anything. Too many motorcycles, trucks, and far too many white people. No diversity.

I can appreciate a nice country suburb, but desolate Americana just doesn’t do it for me.

I suspect folks from out here may dislike coming into the city. How about you? What are your experiences with this?
