So, I've taught at schools in California and Wisconsin. I have had a lot more cultural issues in Wisconsin. By this I mean, difficulty dealing with people who are a different sexual orientation, race, religion, etc. 99% of my students are white students who grew up in white areas with little to no experience dealing with someone who is different from them. I'm unsure how to help my students become more comfortable with people who are different from the "norm" they have experienced. In California it was a totally different story!
