According to Georg Simmel, how does geographic space impact individuals and their interactions?

Please provide the best answer for the statement.


1. Urban areas are busier, which causes individuals to become detached and distrustful of
others. The detachment helps to protect mental health from the overstimulation of the city.
2. Rural areas have a slower pace of life and are characterized by interconnection between
people.
3. Interactions in cities are more formal and calculating, whereas interactions in rural areas
are more connected and heart-to-heart.
