It very much depends on which minority and which small town or big city you are talking about!

I think people can live wherever they want to what ever feels the most comfortable for that individual person.

Just like suzanne said, it depends on which minority and which cities. For the sake of answering the question though, I would say it's better to live in a big city, there is more diversity. Small towns involve people who don't think outside the box, so outsiders aren't welcomed.

Honestly it depends on which minority. Not all minorities are "treated" equally. However, being a minority myself I would have to say that it varries also with personality. I am a very independent person, so I would rather be a minority in a small town (but I hate small towns! They're too small!) because it would be easier for me to make my name known, make sense?

As a member of a very small minority I can say that, in general, it is easier for me to not be noticed in a larger, diverser group of people. It is also easier for me to not be noticed if the community in which I live is multi-ethnic. No matter where I go I am the lone Romani ("Gypsy"). It really is better to just not stand out. Of course some small non ethnically diverse communities are great... it depends on the community. I lived in one that was vastly of one that was just fantastic. I put up with a lot of light hearted Gypsy jokes and lived in constant threat of having my hair french braided if I fell asleep and was accepted by a bunch of self-admitted Southern rednecks. I miss that place.

Big city = Big variety in people and therefore I would think more likely he would be more accepted.
