I don't really buy it though. How often does the average person have a long lasting conversation with a random person on the subway or some other area? I mean, when I take public transportation I pretty much never see people independently having conversations with each other. |
I was thinking more of the neighbors in the apartment building and the people you meet at places like the lunch restaurant (I can't even think of a term for it in english). Not to mention (at least here in the South) that any time I step into a restaurant for lunch, I'm hassled to eat and gtfo as fast as possible. That has not happened to me ONCE in Spain/Italy, did in London though (but not Liverpool).
Edit: I am not exactly sure where the more socialization comes from, but the fact remains that people have more social interaction per day than their counterparts in the US. It is also true within the US as well, if you compare the population of NYC to something like LA , where a large portion of the people live in the suburbs.
