depends if you live in a country where everything is cheap as a bar of soapSomeone mentioned expensive. Is the US really that expensive? I paid $2.99/gallon ($0.79/liter) of unleaded gas and that's in NY which is one of the more "expensive states".

A bunch of every culture mixed together is pretty much neutrality. I guess if you consider large corporations like Mcdonald's and Walmart "culture" that might work though.
Uhh that has nothing to do with it. Just look at a single city: NY. In NY you can find areas of strong Chinese, Italian, Irish etc areas. So whatever culture you want to experience can be found, in a some times sample form, in America.No. I've lived in Germany and Japan and both of those countries were way more expensive.Someone mentioned expensive.

That's what I thought. Whenever I visited Japan, I kept thinking the gas prices were like highway robbery. Also, my cousin over there was renting a 1400sq ft house and he's paying almost $2000/month. I thought that was just the price foreigners had to pay. But, it's the same for Japanese nationals. Compare that to one of the houses we own in Tucson. It's 2200sq ft and my mortgage/tax total per month is like $1200. Well, we just refinanced that house at 4.5%. So, it's actually a little less.
