If you do plan on doing this, make sure you define any terms. With a question like Urban v. Rural, people might have significantly different definitions of both words. Even things like "city" have different definitions depending on what province you are in.

I live in the US, so perhaps generalizing the location a bit more would help

I'd be interested to see the results of something like this, as long as it's guaranteed to anonymize the data.
i think this is a great idea! i like the questions, as long as there's options for people who want to answer some but not all.
That's a good point :)
