Sitting by the pool/beach here in Sarasota and it feels like I'm in Mexico or a Latin American country with all the spanish shite. My top pick would probably be LA though, the place makes me feel like I'm not in the US anymore.

Eta: LA= Los Angeles

St. Augustine, FL.

NO is the most European feeling.

Miami and it's not even close. Los Angeles is filled with gringos. Miami is Latin America.

Eta: most of the non-Native Americans in Los Angeles speak English. The Koreans or the Mexicans all speak English. In Miami, people purposefully don't speak English.

Probably somewhere in Hawaii. I mean that place wasn't even USA until 55 years ago, and it's an island in the Pacific Ocean.

From what I've been to, Laredo TX, the least diverse city in the country. 98% Hispanic. Definitely Laredo. The downtown feels like you are in Mexico.
