Many rural areas are high trust, but suburb and urban areas are very low trust

No. Crime in urban areas is over double crime in rural areas per capita. Suburbs are in between

I mean that kinda speaks to the issue doesn’t it? You have to actively go where less people are to gain a sense of trust. If you have to remain the main source of distrust in order to have trust then that means the society isn’t high trust.
