Demanding, often female, often found as a Fish out of Water on a farm somewhere with disturbingly large and invasive livestock; she may be quite literally out of water where there is no indoor plumbing. May have come to the country overconfidently assuming that The Simple Life is Simple. If female, expect her to frequently complain about breaking her nails. Unlike the Country Mouse (her foil counterpart), usually needs to learn, rather than teach, the lesson.
Frequently overlaps with Naïve Newcomer and Fallen Princess. Particularly if a camping trip is in effect, the Bratty Teenage Daughter usually acts this way (with or without the Fancy Camping stuff). Compare City Slicker, an inexperienced urbanite who comes out to The Wild West.
A Sub-Trope of Rich in Dollars, Poor in Sense.
This term and Country Mouse derive from Aesop's Fables, making it Older Than Feudalism.

Eric in My Effortless Brilliance, has no idea how to live out in the country. Unlike most examples, he's willing to admit that and simply tries to keep out of the way most of the time.

Pauley Cracker from Kimba the White Lion is revealed to be this. He used to be the pet of a wealthy hotel owner who ran away to rescue his girlfriend along with other birds from a pet store. He and the other birds eventually made it into the jungle where Caesar allowed him to stay for demonstrating such courage for a house pet.

In Beverly Hills Teens, the teens try working on a farm. Bianca and Pierce are horrible at it, even though the rest of the kids shouldn't know much about farming either.

Local Hero: Mac is a big-city yuppie who is introduced driving his beloved sports car in morning traffic while listening to drive-time radio. In the office, he declares himself "a Telex man" and prefers speaking to everyone on the phone, even when looking at them through office windows from the next room. When he's forced on a business trip to a small Scottish village, however, he soon finds himself falling in love with the town's seaside beauty and quaint locals.

A minor example would be the gang on It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. One episode shows that Mac and Dennis can't even tolerate living in the suburbs, and until Season 6, Charlie had never even left Philadelphia. In said Season 6 episode, "The Gang Gets Stranded in the Woods," the gang's car breaks down in the Pine Barrens on their way to Atlantic City and they do not take to it well.

Carrie Bradshaw on Sex and the City, when staying in a log cabin in Suffern (although that's Samantha in the trope image). In real life, Suffern is densely populated (over 10,000 residents) and not considered to be in the country, but that didn't stop it from being used as a theme park version of a hick town.

Stand Still, Stay Silent: Emil grew up in a rich family Sweden, that retained enough of its technology After the End to still have a rudimentary railway system. The other members of the crew either come from countries that have been hit much harder by the technology loss than Sweden or grew up in rural areas. This results in Emil being the first to complain about the rougher parts of the trip early on.

She doesn't carry cash and is helpless when the AT Ms go down, is judged by the neighborhood grannies for wearing a crop top and leggings while on a run, and initially alienates the townspeople with her perfectionism and preference for fancy things.

The Goddess's Guide to Farming: Played With. There's humor mined from corporate heiress Seol being unprepared for rural farm work in her sundresses and sandals, and freaking out at the sight of bugs, but it turns out that the townspeople actually have comfortable buildings and advanced technology (with robot assistants and all). The villages are deliberately making her live like she's in the sticks to make her uncomfortable enough to leave. Seol is also very adaptable and is an Instant Expert when it comes to farmwork.

Schitt's Creek features the four members of the Rose Family trying to adjust to their new life in a small rural town.
The Patriarch and former business mogul Johnny Rose still wears immaculately tailored suits every day as he tries to find a business opportunity in the town.
White-Dwarf Starlet Moira dresses in over-the-top designer clothes and wigs every day, even as she finds ways to use her theatrical talents to help the town. She is also the Rose most determined to escape back to their old life.
David Rose is The Dandy who eventually turns his talent for Up Marketing into a business.
Party-girl and Book Dumb Alexis adjusts rather well, even enjoying the company of young rural hunks before she starts a PR business.

The Plot Against America: American Jews in New Jersey are city mice who balk at the thought of being forced to move to small towns in places like Kentucky and Montana. Rabbi Bengelsdorf institutes a government program in which metropolitan Jewish kids spend a summer on a farm to "Americanize" them. Sandy and his friend on the farm even refer to each other as "city mouse" and "country mouse."

Davan sarcastically says yes, but not one with a lid because they don't trust new technology. Meanwhile, his brother's wife is remembering when Davan's previous girlfriend explained to her how a car works "And she didn't even explain it correctly!"

Shoot to Kill:
All of the fishermen besides Ben (who boasts of catching several fish when he made the trip before) are unaccustomed to the wild, particularly Norman. He says that the closest he's even been to the wilderness before is the botanical gardens at the Bronx Zoo. He's going through a bad divorce and wanted to go on a vacation where he has no chance of running into his wife. He does voice some feelings that The World Is Just Awesome as the trip progresses, though.
Plotwise, the main example is the FBI agent played by Sidney Poitier, who's quite capable chasing criminals but out of his depth in the woods. This leads to Teeth-Clenched Teamwork with Know, the Mountain Man he has guiding him.

Hachiken Yugo from Silver Spoon is an intelligent but directionless boy from Sapporo (the largest city in Hokkaido) who decides to apply to an agricultural school, thinking that a school focused on farming will be easy and give him more time to prepare for university. He soon realizes that farming isn't as easy as it sounds, especially with how much physical effort goes into a single day at an agricultural school, though he eventually gets used to it.

A decidedly positive spin on the trope can be found in Come from Away. When the 9/11 terrorist attacks result in American airspace being closed for the first time in history, 38 planes over the Atlantic are diverted mid-flight to the airport just outside the town of Gander, Newfoundland. Many of the 7,000 airline passengers "stranded" in Canada are residents of large cities; the Kevins are a gay couple from LA, Diane and Beverly are professional, middle-aged women from unnamed cities in Texas, and Bob is a black man from New York. A good portion of the show's humor comes from their interactions with the townsfolk of the tiny, Close-Knit Community of Gander (population 9,000) and the surrounding towns that step up to take care of the stranded travelers. At first the travelers express befuddlement or suspicion at the kindness of the small-town residents who donate food, clothing, bedding, phones, medicine, grief counseling, and everything else the stranded passengers need. The travelers eventually come to realize that their Canadian hosts are truly as nice and selfless as they seem.
Bob in particular gets this treatment while staying with the Mayor of Appleton, Newfoundland. While initially suspicious of the total strangers who would open their home to him and immediately treat him like an old friend — especially when the mayor sends him out to round up all the neighbor's grills for an impromptu cookout (which causes Bob to worry he'll end up shot at for trespassing) — Bob eventually becomes quite comfortable and happy in Newfoundland. When he finally returns to the USA, he has a hard time explaining to his family how happy he was during his stay, trying to reconcile the warmth and care he received while stranded with the tragedy of the circumstances that landed him there in the first place.
The Kevins are initially wary of disclosing their relationship to the provincial residents of small-town Gander, fearing that they'll end up the target of anti-gay discrimination. When their relationship is unwittingly revealed during an evening at Gander's drinking establishment, the Kevins happily surprised to find out that the townsfolk treat it like no big deal, listing off their own gay relations (daughters, sisters, brothers, etc.). This leads the Kevins to remark "We somehow ended up in the gayest town in Newfoundland... there must be something in the water."

Sunrise: The Woman from the City, with her tight dresses and heels, obviously doesn't fit in the rural village (she even has a maid polish those heels before she goes to walk along the muddy village roads). And she knows it, which is why she wants the Man to come to the city with her.

In the rom-com Continental Divide, the Intrepid Reporter played by John Belushi has a pressing need to get out of Chicago, before corrupt city officials can arrange an unpleasant accident for him. The Sun-Times editor, for reasons known only to himself, sends him into the mountains of Wyoming.

Both The Parent Trap (1961) and The Parent Trap (1998) have this as an aspect of the catty, mean, image-obsessed fiancée of the girls' father, although it's played up a bit more in the remake.

in Insu-Pu, all the kids are naturally disoriented and a little lost in their deserted island, but they all get used to it pretty quickly despite all of them being city kids. All of them, with the exception of sheltered nine years old countess Grace, who is scared of the goat, let alone the wild animals in the island.

Aesop recounted the story of a city mouse visiting a country mouse and scorning his life as simple, but when the country mouse went to the city, he found the danger of cat and concluded that safety and simplicity in the country were best.

In Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, the Databook reveals Zenitsu was born near Tokyo and he's generally in touch with the society and industrial advancements of early 20th century Japan. This puts him in contrast with Country Mouse Tanjiro and Wild Child Inosuke, which is made especially apparent when he's the only one of the three of them who actually knows what a train is.

In the Rivers of London novel Foxglove Summer, Peter Grant has to investigate a crime in Hertefordshire. Peter, who has previously said "People say there's life outside London, but I've never seen any actual proof", actually manages quite well, by bowing to the local knowledge of the county police, while adding his own expertise in matters of magic.

In Warrior Cats, pretty much every kittypet (cat owned by humans). Most of them seem surprised that wild cats have to hunt for their food, and can't imagine doing it themselves (in fact, some of them find the idea of hunting to be messy and disgusting) or sleeping anywhere but a warm bed.

The Lois & Clark episode "The Green, Green Glow of Home" features Lois's first visit to Smallville. She's derisive of the Corn Festival and has a rather patronising view of the town as a whole, at one point feeling the need to explain what a fax machine is to Ma Kent, who was just wondering if she'd need to restock the paper.

In The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, this is Keira Metz in a nutshell. Keira is a Girly Girl sorceress forced away from her position at court by witch-hunters who, when you meet her, has become the village witch in a small farming community. You can find her efforts to reconnect with her former life in her cottage, like a wide variety of experimental make-up components made from local plants and a complaint about the cost of getting her favorite foods delivered to the middle of nowhere. In the end, poor Keira can't take country life, and will, if you don't intervene, take certain death at the hands of Radovid's witch-hunters over another night with the bed-bugs.

The Aviator: At one point in the film, Howard Hughes and Katharine Hepburn address each other as “City Mouse� and “Country Mouse� -– a detail lifted from telegrams exchanged between the two that were auctioned off after Hepburn’s death. The difference in their backgrounds is explored in another scene in which Hughes travels to meet Hepburn's family.

The Anderssons by Solveig Olsson-Hultgren:
Rebecka grew up in the city of Stockholm but is forced to live with her grandparents in rural Småland. Of course, she needs a while to adapt to her new surroundings. Ironically enough, her mother Elin had been a Country Mouse in Stockholm.
Like her older sister Rebecka, Judith grew up in Stockholm and has to adapt to living in rural Småland.
Nina (who is their first cousin once removed) lived a few years in the city of Malmö, where she joined a gang of juvenile delinquents. Her mother sends her to Judith's commune in Småland. She too needs a while to adapt.
