I have lived in New Bedford for pretty much my whole life. It is sad to say, but I have to agree with this. When I go up north to New Hampshire every now and then it is like a whole new world. Even just one state away makes a difference. Its nice to go somewhere and not get flipped off by a passing car, swerving around you when you are in a crosswalk trying to cross the street. I am not saying all, but a lot of the people here are rude and inconsiderate.
