Yeah, you're right it's a different thing to doing it in cities, cooking is important. In my experience, I have lots of vegan rural friends however that's due to my social circle and isn't representive. In the uk apparently we are on 4.7% vegan now (1567% increase in 10 years) its become noticeably more over the last few years but probably not to the same level as cities.

Is that from people converting or because of immigration from places like India?

To be honest I'm not sure. The increase I have seen has been across all ethnicitys, mostly younger people though.
