"Maybe they're rude because they are focused on making their big break," wrote Alot Travel.New York City made the list, but they're no strangers to being considered rude. The Big Apple is famous for it, you might say."Cut ‘em some slack, though.

How can anyone be rude in Hawaii?Noted as having one of the worst crime rates, according to Alot Travel, "petty theft is pretty rude," making this a prime reason for its being on the list.For the complete list of cities given the honor of rudest in their stateSo what do you think, is Houston the rudest city in Texas?
