this depends on where you go and what you're expecting. The way I've always phrased it is like:

  • People in the south are polite, but not nice.
  • People in the north are nice, but not polite
  • And people in the pacific northwest are somehow both nice and polite

Disagree on PNW lol, Portland and Seattle are some of the most passive aggressive places I've ever been too

Yeah hard disagree on the PNW. The west coast is extremely passive aggressive. They're neither nice nor polite, they're just couching their rage under maybe-later-kiddo passive aggression.

People up north are not nice from my experience. People in the south are far nicer I think.

I grew up in the South so it's just what I've experienced
