Philly is pretty damn fake and rude. There just seems to be this mentality up there that going out of your way to make others as miserable as you is "being real".

I'm suprised baltimore isn't higher up, and I'm blown away that philly isn't in the top 3. Putting every city in the bos\wash corridor with philly being the #1 pic is real, this list is fake.

I used to race in Philly. Loved the regattas on the Schuykill, but noticed that Philly (and the New Jersey burbs to Atlantic City and south to Cape May) seem to have a disproportionate number of egos and complainers.

Just wanna know how you came to that conclusion when the city is often named one of the most friendly cities in the country.

The inclusion of Washington DC and Miami and their position is ON POINT. Though I would switch the two places. Also, if Dallas keeps it up, they will jump Boston.

I personally think New Yorkers are misunderstood. They tend to be sarcastic or just having a bad day since they are dealing with people all the time. LA, on the other hand, are very rude and uncool just like Miami. NY people are nice people while they're not in LA or Miami.

LA people used to be one of the coolest back in 1970's and before. Now, they're the rudest based on my experience. It's very sad. I miss LA in the 1950's when they were so nice and polite/very respectful. It all changed by the very late 70's to early 80's.

I'm not.

I am surprised Dallas made it there. But I moved here from LA, so anything would seem friendlier.

I'm not. Dallas is a very rude city and is only getting worse.
