Ever wonder if you live in a community where people have the most impolite behavior? A recent study published by the language learning app Preply in August shows which cities' locals are the rudest in America.

According to the report — which includes the opinions of more than 1,500 residents in the 30 largest cities in the country — people that have grown up in states like Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, New York, Texas and Florida, among others, have the most discourteous conduct.

Of the top 11 cities with the rudest locals, the No. 1 spot goes to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, followed by Boston, Massachusetts, and Memphis, Tennessee.

This means that dwellers living in these places are used to a certain negative attitude.
