As a case study for the rest of the country, Colorado offers striking examples of the rural-urban divide.
The Denver Post has published a series of articles exploring the "Colorado Divide" for lessons of the many "issues that cast rural Coloradans in contrast with their urban cousins, and it explores the values and norms that shape responses to the challenges they face."
The series includes 16 articles, ranging from discussions of demographics, politics, and real estate.
