So, do you guys support making districts that make no attempt to collect people with similar occupations, political views, societal interests, or whatever?
These are important things to take into account... but while drawing districts taking these issues into account can sometimes lead to favoring one party over the rest... that is not the point.

I think MN does a good job of balancing rural, suburban, and urban districts.  Otherwise they are drawn by county with county splits taking place only where proportion becomes a problem.
