Perhaps the reader will be surprised, because who more or less has suffered rude behavior from their neighbors, that their city is one of the most attentive. however a study carried out throughout Spainreveals that a Valencian city is considered as one of the most educated in the country placing itself, neither more nor less, than in third place in the ranking of the friendliest. On the other side of the coin, there is another city in the Valencian Community that also ranks third, but one of the rude ones.

The analysis carried out by the search platform for private teachers ‘Preply’, has been carried out among more than 1,500 residents of 19 areas of Spain and, as indicated in the study, “they have been asked how often they find with rude behavior, their opinion on tipping, and who they think are the rudest, the locals or the outsiders.”

The friendliest cities

In order to draw conclusions, respondents were asked to rate 12 specific behaviors such as the tendency to remain absorbed looking at the mobile, watch videos in public, skip lines or not slow down when pedestrians approach.

And as a conclusion it has been drawn that Valencia (with a score of 5.28) is the third most educated city in Spain. They are only ahead in this ranking by Vigo (5.17) and the A Coruña-Oleiros-Arteixo area (5.28).

Despite the good final position, there are certain points that, for those who live in the city, are especially annoying and occur regularly. Valencia receives a bad score in that its residents tend to remain absorbed looking at their mobiles, are loud in public, watch videos in public (high volume is understood), do not greet strangers and do not give tips.

The top ten of educated areas complete it: Murcia-Orihuela, Oviedo-Gijón-Avilés, Las Palmas, Zaragoza, Seville, Cádiz and Madrid.

And who are the rudest?

On the other side, those that receive a worse score from their neighbors are on the podium Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Granada and Alicante-Elche.
