How friendly can a city be if it's got a slave market prominently displayed in its center? Friendly for whom? I'm not one of those yankees who constantly harps on the South's past, but in Charleston, SC, it's in-your-face creepy. I wonder how Auschwitz ranks on the friendly city scale in Europe.
Auschwitz is not a city, it is a concentration camp.
It is important to have something like a slave market or concentration camp open for display. It was horrible but people should learn from it so that it doesn't happen again.
Saying a historical site with a bad past makes a city's current residents, alive centuries after the slave market was operating, unfriendly is absurd. Another examplenof how on this website, Northeasterners just can't give credit where it's due and accept that the South is better at some things than they are.
The South is just a less stressful place -- generally better weather, less dense. It's no wonder people are nicer there, because they're happier. If you live in places like NYC, Boston, Philly and LA where there's less personal space (traffic, apartments vs. houses, etc).

These were the first 3 I found on Google, feel free to go on down the results list, but beyond extreme politically-motivated lists, every time I see one of these it's northern and western states, not southern, which have the highest poverty/worst health in the country to contend with, along with what I consider to be the worst weather.
They were neither rude nor friendly in Charleston when I visited and it has kind of a stuffy old money feel to it. I found Atlanta to be a lot friendlier.
I felt the same way and found Savannah to be friendlier than Charleston.
