3. Chicago, Illinois

If you’ve ever been to Chicago, then you must know if the surveys are accurate or not! However, the local media claims that Chicago has a long history of being an unpleasant city. In a 1985 editorial in the Chicago Tribune, rudeness was described as ” impulsive, chronic, and utterly omnipresent.”
