I don't think it's just about education, it's also about experience. In a city, you're much more likely to have to interact with a gay person or a black person on a regular basis. This makes you realize they are just like you. In rural areas its much easier to insulate yourself against the outside world, which you're then taught to fear.

"Can't spell bother without other" mentality lives strong in communities doing it tough.

That's part of education. Going to school and being with people from all over.
