What state have you been to that had the nicest people?

I'm from here and agree. People are not really nice here. SC maybe great if you are white, but as a black woman, not so much.

I know it's not a state, but it's close enough --

Puerto Rico

I 100% agree with this. It is amazing. People in NYC really look for connection. The south is fake nice.

When you make generalized assumptions about an entire group of people (in your case, multiple states of people), it says more about you.

I have a delightful friend who is routinely upgraded despite having no airline status because she is so darn nice. I’m nice in that I’m polite and pleasant to gate agents, but she is genuinely nice and friendly on a different level. Not surprisingly, she finds nice people and wonderful customer service whether she goes.

+1 Yep!

I guess we can assume that's why you love Trump. He's not fake nice; he's just not nice.

I'm not white and have met some wonderful people in SC and I've always been treated kindly. I was helped free of charge when my car broke down. Here in falls church when my car broke down I was honked at non stop for practically three hours until the tow truck came. I had my 4 way hazard lights on and flares and no one stopped to help me. Its eye opening.

My friend lives there and says people are awful. She hates it.

My friends who live there says the people are wonderful and very kind. They love Tennessee!

+1 Starbucks is in the process of moving a lot of its employees to Tennessee.

Yes, people in Louisiana are very nice, but still direct and not fake.

So, you’re fine with making generalized assumptions about whole entire states — the topic of this thread — but not about multinational states?
Texas and California assumptions are ok — but not assumption about New England or the Midwest? Just checking.

I’ve been to SC — Once. The tourist-focused restaurant that I was in literally called in a cop because I ate a bite (literally one bite of food) that someone at the table offered me. They then charged me for getting an all-you -can-eat special. When I asked them about the charge, they brought over a cop. If this was their policy, I sure wish they had been clear about it while I was still eating — so I could have at least taken advantage of the options available with the special. The cop was polite and professional, and I have no complaints about his behavior.

That was my last trip to SC. I’m not white.

“multiple states” not “multinational “. Related rant: I need to start proofreading better. I’ve long had a love/hate relationship with autocorrect, but recently it seems to be going beyond making spelling corrections — to changing correctly spelled words to completely different words. I hate it.
