My family has constantly travelled and I've lived all sorts of places and visited even more. I've always seen myself as an international rather than an American (as I am a citizen) or a Greek (as both my parents are Greek) or Israeli (as I was born in Jerusalem).
I do love the urban environment, but at the same time I love a laid back small town feel. Not American small town, but more like Dole, France.
It really depends on the type of people I guess. People and surroundings to be more precise. In America, small town usually means "poor and uneducated" as opposed to quaint, traditional and relaxing that you might more easily find in another Country.
However, I may be ignorant to most American towns and cities as I have not been to many places in the States.

And I agree with your second point, however I do very much like the cosmopolitan scene, as I went through my rebellious years in suburbia and now I don't like it much
