Abstract
The experiences of victimisation and living conditions of LGBTI (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex) people are not homogeneous and vary by geographical location. There have been comparisons between the heterogeneous experiences of these population groups in different countries, regions and cities, which have attracted both academic and media attention. This article uses data for Spain from a European Union survey to examine how participants’ responses to victimisation and living conditions vary according to where they live along the rural-urban continuum. After applying chi-squared tests of independence and standardised residuals, it was found that the experiences of LGBTI people were not homogeneous, and the specific problems faced by each group of participants could be identified.
