Rather confusing that London would be ranked third for friendliest locals and then second for unfriendliest locals.

I guess the level of expense to any individual depends on the relative strengths of their currencies, so London is more expensive to an American than it is to a Brit.

Moscow is not so big a deal to us, but it may be hard for many locals.

Rather disturbingly those are the only capitals I've ever been to. No wonder I've never got any money.,

I agree with that completely, there are both! You either get trampled in the rush for the train or helped until you just want them to go away.
