Note: Puerto Rico locations are estimations as there are different rural definitions.
There may be some support for the assertion that those escaping elite or private schools and still choosing FP tend to choose rural in higher percentage, as noted by Pathman. This may also have to do with rural or social status origins or the ability to do more hands-on training at such schools with more availability of this kind of training see Competence
