New York City is among the top 10 unfriendliest cities in the world, according to a new survey.
Travel + Leisure released its annual list of the most unfriendly cities in the globe, based on responses from nearly 200,000 people worldwide. Of 266 cities ranked by indicators like value and warmth of residents, New York was determined to be the sixth most unfriendly city in the world.
According to Travel + Leisure, one survey respondent said, "People are not exactly the kindest to strangers. New York has everything -- just don't ask a person in the street to help you find it."
Other survey respondents felt overwhelmed by the crowds. Ultimately, many said it was still worth visiting the Big Apple, despite it being "unfriendly," namely for its bagels, the incredible view from One World Trade Center and all that Central Park has to offer.
