There is a codependency between urban and rural areas that mean that one would not work as well without the other, so I hope we can all learn to be accepting of one another.
Urban centralization creates a lot of economic demand with high populations and benefits from efficiencies of scale, but has a higher cost to use land.
Rural areas are lower cost, and the expansive areas have lots of natural resources that can be extracted or be used to farm.
Economically, people may be pushed out of cities either because of the basic cost or cost of the area that people want for themselves, so I think it makes sense why they would grow to resent the cities, disregarding cultural differences.
I see you reacting to that perceived hostility as a second or third order effect, but all that does it create a deeper problem.
