The PREPLY Platform has carried out a study to find out which are the rudest cities in the Spanish state; and also which cities were the most generous on a scale from 1 to 10. For this, more than 1,500 residents of 19 areas of Spain have been interviewed and they have been asked how often they encounter rude behavior.
The study concludes that the four most rude son Santa Cruz de Tenerife (6.06); Granada (5.95); y Alicante-Elche (5.81). These three are followed by San Sebastián (5.77); Bilbao (5.73); Palma (5.69); Barcelona (5.64); Malaga (5.61); Valladolid (5.58) and Madrid (5.53). The reasons why those surveyed have voted Santa Cruz de Tenerife as the rudest city have been because its inhabitants spend all day glued to the phone and for not giving way to other cars when there is a lot of traffic, among other reasons.
Los behaviors that are considered rude They are being on the phone all the time in public; not letting other cars pass when there is traffic; do not slow down when driving near pedestrian areas with pedestrians; making noise in public; do not welcome outsiders; watch videos in public; speak to the speaker in public; block body language; not respecting personal space; being rude to the service staff; Do not leave a tip or skip a line.
