Some have speculated that people in rural areas are more likely to help than are people in urban areas because "trust" and "being neighborly" are more valued in rural than in urban settings. Were this true, who would be most likely to help a stranger who needed assistance?

Step-by-step explanation:

Just from personal experience, I move from the city to a rural area. In the rural setting it took me off guard to have ppl. I dont know waving at me for no reason, if I had a flat tire, in the city, no one would stop to help or ask if I was ok.

There is a huge value in a rural setting by asking oneself "what if I were in that situation?"

Your surroundings reflects how ppl react in a crisis situation.. The answer is the rural person is more likely to help a stranger.
