...I couldn't disagree more with that myth. I always have found the majority of NYers to be helpful, friendly, and proud of their city.
Are they rushed? They have to be, they're a busy people.
Are they cautious? They have to be, we're not talking about Oz here.
Are they open-minded? Well, in a city that attracts people from 170 different nations, why wouldn't you be?
Do they help their fellow human beings in times of dyer need? NYers seem to be among the first to do so. Remember 9-11?
I live in middle America (Kentucky) and I believed the whole "New York rude" myth UNTIL I visited. Now, I want to thank NYers for your gift to the world: Your great city!
NYers present a sense of realism, showing both the tough attitude acquired from gritty yesteryear (1965-95) and the human spirit and compassion. NYers are also better than the flakes in L.A. and real jerks of Chicago.
