Although one may be tempted to generalize because of the proximity,it is amazing how the small cities I live in here are different from the main big one despite being so close to it. In a few years these two cities (the one I live in and the other one between it and the big city) showed me shameless and aggressive discriminating behavior that I did not experience at that level in the main city despite living there much longer. If one occasionally experience a discrimination and sick level of hatred in that big city, one can hardly go out and do even a little task without experiencing that in a much more obvious way. I may in the future provide specific example about the level of discrimination here. However, my main intention here is to point out the difference between the big city and those two small cities close to it. This also may provide some answer to what I used to wonder about in seeing how the population of big cities grows much faster than that of the small ones surrounding it.
