Those of us from the countryside, would you tend to say your county when asked where you’re from, in place of where others would say their city?

I moved to Yorkshire a couple of years ago. When people ask where I moved from, I just tell them Cornwall. The reason, much like an onion, has layers. 1. is because I don't expect them to know where the place in Cornwall I lived is. 2. Is because the nearest city to where I was, wasn't even IN Cornwall. And I was a fair distance from Cornwall only actual city, Truro. 3. Is because sometimes, and just sometimes, I like to fuck with people by saying "quenwerl" and watching their cogs slip a gear trying to figure it out. Similarly, at my new job up here, I would sometimes just layer on a thick corbish accent. Just to fuck with people. Because what's life without whimsy? In any case, when people hear it they usually say something like "oh, I love Cornwall, I used to go on holiday there" and "why did you leave". And then I have to explain that visiting somewhere, and living there, are two very different animals. And unless you have a substantial income, living in Cornwall is a dead end. Then they ask what it's like. And I tell them it's a lot like the movie hot fuzz. (which wasn't set in Cornwall, but the rural village life and silly accebt is close enough)
