What are the rudest cities in America?
Rudest Cities? NOT Santa Clarita 🤍
America is home to many welcoming cities filled with friendly residents, yet there are certain areas that do not quite live up to this warm reputation. Factors such as a fast-paced lifestyle and the seemingly aloof demeanor of some locals contribute to the perception of rudeness in these bustling urban centers. This has led to a few cities being identified as among the most impolite in the nation, where the atmosphere can feel less than inviting.
The behaviors that have influenced these rankings include a noticeable lack of public awareness, excessive noise in communal spaces, and discourteous interactions with service personnel. According to a recent survey conducted by Preply, Oakland, California, ranks as the fifth rudest city in the state, with other notable mentions including Long Beach, San Francisco, Sacramento, Los Angeles, and San Jose. The overall list of the rudest cities in America features Miami, Philadelphia, Tampa, Louisville, and Oakland, while states like Idaho, Montana, and Iowa surprisingly do not have any cities represented among the rudest. Preply gathered this information by surveying residents about their observations of social conduct in their cities, ultimately calculating a rudeness score based on their feedback.
