Dissatisfaction in rural areas with local transport services

In the case of cell phone reception, the range of good ratings extends from 63 percent in very rural regions to 73 percent in metropolitan areas.
For the survey, the opinion research institute info reportedly polled from 22. June to 7. July by phone and online 2594 people aged 16 and over. A more precise differentiation was also made according to "landlichkeit", for example according to settlement density and the proportion of agricultural land.

According to the survey, 76 percent of people in germany think that elementary schools are well provided for, slightly more in rural areas than in metropolitan areas.
The managing minister, julia klockner, reaffirmed the goal of equal living standards. "City and country at eye level – that’s what it’s all about," the CDU politician told the dpa. The rural regions are not the "sick man" of germany, but in many places power centers and home to innovations. A prerequisite for more jobs, for example, is often a connection to fast internet. For this, the federal government had recently made available 1.1 billion euros. The ministry of agriculture is also calling for around 2,000 projects through a rural development program.
