A city where everybody knows your name — and they’re always glad you came — might exist exclusively in the fictional world of “Cheers.” But there are a few burgs in America that rise up to and above standard courtesy.
That’s according to the readers of Conde Nast Traveler, who recently cast votes for the “10 Most Tourist-Friendly Cities in the U.S.” No. 1 on the list? That would be Lexington, Kent., which the magazine praised for its distilleries, dining scene and “small-town community atmosphere, which we attribute to the friendly locals.”
A California city also made the cut, and it’s no surprise, given its SoCal-surfer charm, that it is San Diego. “Maybe it’s the near-perfect weather, but there’s something about San Diego that seems to bring out the best in everyone,” CN Traveler writes. Considering its sunny weather, good tacos on every corner and friendly attitude, maybe it’s time to plan a trip toward the border.
