The Rudest People in America Seem to Live in These States

I've had my fair share of rude people here in the city and in other places but i don't believe we're that rude unless you support the rich or if you're in the landlord industry

The Rudest People in America Seem to Live in These States

Americans love judging one another’s manners, and few topics spark faster arguments than who seems warm, who sounds sharp, and which places feel hardest on visitors. For a travel piece like this, the safest route is not folklore but survey data with a clear methodology.

Clever Real Estate’s August 5, 2024 study of 1,000 American adults ranked New York, New Jersey, California, Texas, and Florida as the states with the rudest residents. That gives this slideshow a documented backbone instead of turning it into a pile of recycled stereotypes.

They refer to the whole state of New York, apparently. Odd. I've never seen Westchester County as all that rude. Even Manhattan gets a bad rap, because its compact layout and heavy use of mass transit makes people mix more than they would in a car-centered environment such as Los Angeles.

The poll referred to seems a bit strange. I've heard of Gallup and other professional companies like that, but who is Clever Real Estate? What was the design of their "study?" Who was asked? How was sampling done?
