Interesting. I moved from central Florida (near Lakeland) to Indiana/Illinois (near Chicago) - and my experience was just the opposite. I could not stand Florida, but I also realize I'm in the minority...Having lived in Northern new Jersey for many years I would bet that people would vote N.J & N.Y as the most unfriendly but they would be wrong . They may be loudmouths but they are lovable loudmouths who will spill their life history in an hour .I now live in Florida and since that has become a melting pot from everywhere I would have to vote for Indiana & Illinois . Those people are secretive and not friendly unless you are also from their home states .

Chicago is exempt . It is more the rural areas that bred unfriendly people .
Do these "friendly/unfriendly" threads and polls serve any purpose other than antagonizing?

I'm from rural Indiana...
We have termites, mosquitoes, killer bees, tarantulas, biting flies, scorpions, rattlesnakes, dust storms, hail storms, tornadic storms, hurricanes, drought, flood, pestilence, etc., but we're friendly...
Most unfriendly place in USA? kinda hard to say if you dont know all the people,i've met friendly and unfriendly people in every part of the USA.
When I spent some weeks in L.A., I was surprised more than once by the natives saying they wished they lived in Chicago (where I was from at the time) rather than L.A. And we people in Chicago thought L.A. was mecca. But they seemed so unhappy that I guess not.
.... It's now April 20th and 200 miles directly north of Chicago I will be getting an inch or 2 of snow with windchills in the low 20's tonight.
Could you overnight some of that white stuff; low 20's sounds so refreshing. We're suffering a heat wave here without air conditioning. Hope you take winter vacations.
