neutral  David Hollywood: I think "Interior" has colonial connotations in English so I would steer away from using it (just a personal opinion) :) thanks for your reply and I still say that "Interior" is iffy no matter how many references back it up :) no offense at all intended

  -> Too personal. I see no "colonial connotation" in the word. This is a very subjective opinion. Brasilia is in the interior of Brazil, as well as Paris, in France, or Berlin, in Germany. See my examples: no "colonial connotation" there either.// Wow!

come to think of it ... "provincial" also has certain negative connotations in certain contexts so input from colleagues would be more than helpful here :)

agree  Adam Prus-Szczepanowski: I guess this makes sense!

  -> thanks Adam :)

agree  Susana Alves: This makes sense because the "policia do interior" covers a province or state rather than a county. However, if it excludes cities, then rural is best.
