small-town syndrome

small town syndrome is when people’s thoughts are limited by a mental box, the less knowledge of the outside world, the smaller the box. this often happens when people do not venture past their back door.
“how can he talk about that culture in that way, he has never even spent time with those people”

“he is suffering from small town syndrome, he does not know what is out there”
a condition in which small towns suffer from a lack of offerings in a number of important lifestyle categories (i.e.; stuff to do, availability of the opposite s-x, etc.) and a general malaise of boredom and monotony.
g-d, this town is so boring! there’s nothing to do–it’s the worst case of small-town syndrome i’ve ever seen!
when an individual becomes infatuated with their own reputation and creates a faux following and ego around themselves. this is all undone upon the individual visiting a larger town or city, where they find themselves somewhat unknown and ignored.
