A lot of people I've heard from in rural areas have much better Internet connections than I can affordably get living in San Diego.

I'll second this. When I lived in Mitchell, SD (15k people - look it up) I had 3 ISPs to choose from (in city limits). I had pretty good throughput from 2 of them - one was wireless.
If we were then to rank ISP's on throughput, even though a rural ISP is serving a critical and under-served part of our community, they would be rewarded with negative perception.
