Not quite true. They are not comparing like with like. A rural ethnic minority individual will generally be moving and interacting within one ethnic grouping and as such will stand out as he interacts with that group. In the city that same individual is likely to interact within their own community group more often and may come into contact with fewer individuals of various different ethnic groups. There were many Indians in rural India who rarely saw a British white man during the Raj and very much would depend on the demeanour of that one individual. It is a bit like saying that if one is a nudist one gets more stares in the street than if one is in a nudist camp. So why do you think there so few ethn7c minority take up residents In the country side? Don't really know but at a guess it is maybe because they feel like a fish out of water. Culturally they will be even more strangers than within Cosmopolitan groups. The countryside is a foreign country even to many British people. I grew up in a large village in North central Scotland and even there a short journey to the country was a foreign land sometimes just a few hundred yards. Once you put a few miles and went beyond the Highland fault then even the language would be different but even so rural accents everywhere are more difficult to follow.

There are villages in England where a considerable percentage of the people are descendents of African sailors who served in the Royal Navy in the late 18th early 19th centuries. When they'd served their time they were given land and married local White women. I wonder what the "woke" people would make of the African names in these villages' churchyards? So that’s why I live in Rastas Odinga street .

It's because blacks are racist. They prefer to live in black communities. The other thing is that jobs in the country are usually pretty hard work. How many black farmers have you seen? Their usual occupations of theft and drug dealing don't really pay very well in the country because most people are relatively poor and don't take drugs.

Believe it or not drugs are pretty rife in country towns and villages .
