All cities are friendly to Trump.

His rallies prove this.

Of course some cities have those Democrat Plantations where they haven't learned better yet.

LOL, I wonder how many people at the rallies had to come to see for themselves how crazy Trump is, and left knowing they couldn't possibly vote for him.

Yeah - that's some lofty goals there.
Well actually Natural Gas, and oil. However, would love more high paying manufacturing jobs here. They are great multipliers too as many service jobs are created for every manufacturing job.

In short they believe in the American Dream and that America is exceptional.


They do not believe in making excuses or apologies for what America was.

Actual America is Trump land because Hillary was against them.
The answer to your question would be that this location is neither "Trump land" nor "Hillary land", but places that are more purple politically.

And not purple because 50 percent of the population is to the extreme right or left, so they cancel each other out. Purple because there is a higher percentage of the population who are more moderate and can see various viewpoints and even if they disagree with them still have respect for them, or more importantly, the people who hold them.

And it's in places that are full of people who can work together with their neighbors to find solutions to their problems without politicizing every little petty grievance, or let their political biases taint so much of their common sense or desire to make their communities a better place.

The answer to the OPs question is that "Trump friendly" cities are those with a high percentage of people who are white, older, and have low levels of formal education:

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not.

Population density is extremely low in rural areas. Using a map of the US that shows huge red areas doesn't prove that the US is "mostly conservative". By land area, sure. But by the US population as a whole, it's not.

NYC has an average population density of over 27,000 per square mile, Meanwhile, Purdum, NE has a population density of 0.77 per square mile.

Let's go down the list. Santa Anna CA has around the same 27 sq miles that Purdum, NE has in land area. They have 324,000 people in the same area that Purdum has..... 21 people.

Most people these days cannot accept that the 1950s are over. That's just a fact. Instead of things like high tech and renewable energy, most Americans want to cling to dying industries like coal. Instead of advancing science, most Americans now want to deny science because they believe bronze age religious tomes are more reliable. It's really sad that a nation that once valued science so much and even placed a man on the moon has sunk to this level.
