As someone that has lived for significant time in 3 disparate parts of the country, I honestly feel CP has the pulse of America pretty good. I saw nfotiu thanked your post and he is in Virginia and often has pretty different takes on things. And I have also conversed with EldrickOnIce and he has some pretty different experiences. So its certainly anecdotal at best, but I pride myself on having seen a pretty wide swath of what this country has to offer.

I find that Canadians that live in America now seem to have a much rosier take on rural America than born Americans. I think some of it is the psychological effect of people leaving places for new places and feeling pressure to lay claim to a new area, where they end up defending it more than the locals.
