[quote=Anonymous]East coast is a big place - North and South are very different, rural very different from urban. That being said, as a DC area turned Bay Area turned DC area person again, here’s what I’ve noticed: SF - passive aggressive - don’t understand sarcasm - much more chill - flaky or late more often - more self expression (music, art, especially fashion) - more casual (hoodies, jeans) - when talking “I feel...” - minorities much more integrated DC - “what do you do?” as a greeting - status oriented (job, education, neighborhood) - keep commitments, more punctual - less self expression (tend to dress more conservatively even if politically liberal) - more formal (clothes, Mr./Ms.) - when talking “I think...” - minorities still seen as minorities[/quote]
