do you find people from big cities really think they’re something special when they visit smaller towns/cities?

I have lived in a variety of places, of different sizes. In my experience, this sort of thing works both ways. On the one hand, I have known big-city people to have the attitude that small-town folks are ignorant and unsophisticated. On the other hand, I have known rural people to consider city folks as ignorant (they supposedly think chocolate milk comes from brown cows, for example) and parochial.
