Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Urban residents are exposed to a greater diversity of social behavior, cultures, and lifestyles, leading to greater tolerance towards others. However, due to the high density of people in urban areas, residents may feel isolated and surrounded by strangers, leading to feelings of indifference and reserve. Discrimination and political insiders are not necessarily more prevalent in urban areas, and tax shelters are not directly relevant to tolerance or social behavior. While uniform social behavior may be expected in certain settings, such as workplaces, it is not necessarily related to tolerance or urban/rural differences.
