I'm reminded of Asimov's Elijah Baley books, in which all of Earth's early space colonies are disease-free, highly automated, and idyllic, but they can't stand being around filthy Earthers and everyone becomes so neurotic about avoiding risk that the cultures are stagnate and doomed to failure sooner or later.
In the most most extreme case, the inhabitants of a particular colony could barely stomach the idea of another human being in the same building.
