The wife and I spent a week in NY a couple years ago, and I was surprised at how friendly people were. Every time I took out a map, a complete stranger would stop and ask if we needed a hand. We were waiting for the subway to take us to a Yankees game, and a guy standing behind heard gave us an unsolicited tip to take the express train...saving us 30 minutes!
The sterotype that New Yorkers are jerks and will kill you if you get in their way is complete crap.
