What's the RUDEST places any of you have been to, in Australia?
I've been to about 30 Australian cities and was born here.
2x places stand out for me:
1) WaggaWagga, NSW
and
2) Ballina, NSW
In both places, the general public was undeniably rude, kept their eyes down when walking, didn't nod or say hello when you passed them in the street, didn't smile, looked like they didn't want to be there, Cafè staff rolled their eyes when serving you, at the shops, none of the staff nodded or acknowledged you when you entered their store, even though there was no other shopper inside...I could go on.
I found even Sydney, a busy city, did not even match the rudeness of those two towns.
In WaggaWagga in particular, all the women were size 8-12 - to my utter surprise for a country town where BBW women are usually plentiful.
I suppose because in WaggaWagga, they are trying to breed the perfect Aryan Australian, who is excellent at all Sports activities:
But why is Ballina so rude? Are they sick of people bypassing the town to get to Byron Bay?
Any other towns that have just generally rude people?
