It's not always about social rank.
Resentment can play a big role too.
But that's probably a lot more common in the rustbelt than in a metro area like Denver.
But this whole discussion demonstrates how useful a metro area having its own name can be, such as with "Chicago" and "Chicagoland".
I'm guessing "Denverland" isn't a thing?
