Idk where you have been but in second tier cities I have seen public toilets as well. Maybe not on the outskirts but in central areas for sure.

Good for them! They advance leg in leg with big cities. What those towns were?

As I know, the story with pristinely clean public toilets in Shanghai is such. Once upon a time Jiang came to SH with an official visit and was misfortuned to have to use one of the very few public toilets. Once he went there, something horrid allegedly happened.

Since then, Shanghai got reputation for well kept public toilets and them being supervised by the ministry of interior
