The Urban vs Rural Divide: What influence does geography have on media consumption habits? 


Building on the study done in 2017, this new research thoroughly examines how the community a person lives influences the types of news they follow, trust in media, impact of variable internet access, media preferences for specific types of media as well as the media most likely to inspire action across a number of different business sectors.


It confirms that media plans should be taking into account that a universally applied strategy will not result in universal access to a message.


The study was conducted by random sample with Adults 18+ living in exclusively in communities of less than 100,000 population in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and NWT/NU. The survey was administered using a Computer Assisted Telephone Interview (CATI). The study has a margin of error of +/- 3.3% at the 95% confidence level with 900 total interviews.


Measured Communities and Results:


900-Total Sample:

  • 225-Farms
  • 225-Farms/Hamlets (<1,000 Population)
  • 225-Villages/Towns (1,000-10,000 Population)
  • 225-Cities (10,000-100,000 Population)
