Abstract | The testing of theoretical propositions concerning homogeneity and isolation in rural communities was examined in terms of community size. The 1,100 male adult respondents in West Virginia were chosen through a cluster stratified sample. Sampling strata were based on size of community, region of the state, and socioeconomic status. Data were reported and findings discussed for preferences in life styles, religious beliefs and participation, attitudes toward integration into the larger society, level of living, alienation, religion and primary groups as buffers to the outside world, perception of physical health, and satisfaction with life.
