#30: Florida

Average tip: 16.4%

Percentage of rude drivers: 2%

Florida’s reputation for chaotic traffic and unpredictable behavior extends to its rudeness ranking. Residents tip an average of 16.4%, but 2% of drivers engage in rude conduct, particularly in dense cities like Miami and Orlando.

The state’s booming tourism industry also adds to the tension, as locals often navigate crowded spaces with visitors unfamiliar with the area. While Floridians can be friendly, the sheer volume of people and cultures mingling in the state creates common misunderstandings. Coastal towns, however, often offer a more laid-back and hospitable vibe.
