Tourists please choose your destinations wisely and avoid shit holes like Chicago etc. There are a lot of great things to do here that don't include NYC or DC. If you want to meet real Americans then you need to head out into nature, the sticks. Rivers, mountain and crystal blue streams.
Stay as far away as you can from the police state apparatus that runs this country now.
Real Americans don't live in big cities?
I live near nature, and I visited NYC. They seemed just as American as me, and I very much enjoyed my trip. I even stayed in Harlem.
While I'm certain that there are many "real Americans" in these cities, I find it prudent to suggest that foreign visitors invest their time in our great national parks and along diners beside some forgotten road. They'll find more America there than in the suburbs or a megalopolis. If I were a tourist, I'd stick to small roads and visit off the wall locations on my way to places like Moab Utah.
