[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think DC is extremely welcoming because most people here have moved here from somewhere else so they have experience with being a newcomer once. I personally have found Chicago and the Midwest unwelcoming because many people there are from the Midwest itself and have deep roots and old friendships, so it can be hard to break in as an outsider.

I moved to Chicago from elsewhere in the Midwest and it’s not particularly welcoming because most people have high school friends, extended family and so on and aren’t looking to meet anyone new. 
However a woman from the UK moved to our town and the other moms went absolutely nuts trying to befriend this lady. They threw her a baby shower, invited her to all their homes, they were in love with her and she was ambivalent. She ended up moving away and they still talk about how great she was even though she was completely average. So if there is something special about you like a British accent, Chicago is very welcoming  :lol: [/quote]
