Contrary to the popular image, every time I've been to Manhattan on business I've been astounded at just how polite New Yorkers are. They'll give you directions..........even if they have no bloody clue what they're talking about. They just don't want to
ignore you or leave you hanging. I found myself, time and again, telling 'em "Ya know, you'd better watch it; you're blowing the image of New Yorkers as rude and nasty
big time..". They always seemed to get a kick out of that.
I can certainly think of some Southern cities to add to the list........and there are many smaller towns that would more than qualify.
None, however, are in Florida. :)
Oh, B.S. I know of quite a few places in FL that are friendly and polite. We have manners down here...
None, however, are in Florida. :)Having lived in nearly 2 dozen US cities, I think that Ocala, FL is rather polite. Perhaps you are thinking about the folks down on the Gold Coast, the land of the 'Hanging Chads'.
