When you were talking about miles vs hours, that is another way we are different. You thought 182 miles takes 4 hours, but with our road system, we can go almost 300 miles in 4 hours.

I was gonna say, between Knoxville and Nashville, it's about that distance, and that's about a 3 hour drive on the interstate, with stopping part-way for gas and a bite/drink, plus one rest area, so dividing it into three shorter legs. Knowing when we will arrive at our destination is usually more relevant than the actual distance. To expand on your difference statement, we actually tend to think in terms of time, rather than distance, while I believe the U.K. folks do it the other way 'round.

That’s not necessarily true. I drive from Seattle to Portland a lot and it can take three to four hours thanks to the horrible traffic in each of the metro areas. And the distance between both cities is only 173 miles.

I live in New York State. Over the years I and my family have hosted many European guests. They ALL assume that I am not far from New York City, or Niagra Falls. I am about the same distance from both. They think we can drive into the city on our "night off", or go see the Falls on our day off. We are a 7 hour drive from both.

😆 my work commute is 37 miles one way, approximately 35 minute drive. When I moved from Hawaii to Washington State, I thought that was a long drive because my commute to work in Hawaii was 16 miles and it took me nearly 2 hours to get to work! Needless to say, I also didn't realize how enormous the US is 😆

Yes even the northern USA states except Alaska have hotter days and more of them than the uk. I live in Pacific Northwest of the USA, Vancouver Washington, which is across the Columbia river from Portland Oregon. This year we have had about 6 days over 38C, and 15-20 days over 32C. We also get snow in limited amounts, usually only for a day, but sometimes for a week. The USA southeast states have the most humid heat that lasts for months, and yes it can be unbearable without air conditioning.

I live in North Carolina. My grandparents lived in New York. To drive from NC to NY is about 7 1/2 to 10 1/2 hours give or take traffic. Conversely a flight is about an hour and a half. Still, the total cost was cheaper to drive more often so over the summer when we were out of school we’d drive up to visit our grandparents. This continued into my adulthood until their passing. A half day drive is nothing.

The population density in the US depends greatly on the state you're talking about. For instance, my state, New Jersey has 1263 people per square mile. Whereas Wyoming has 5.67 people per square mile. The UK's population density is 740 people per square mile.

Nice reaction. Thanks for sharing. I live in Dallas Texas. My parents live in the south part of Texas. I have to drive 534 miles to see them. It takes me 10.5 hours. I lived in England for six months. I agree that your summers are hot. I thought is was because you’re an island with high humidity. Also I noticed that cut flowers last longer in England - again, more humidity. Thanks again

@AliKaiProject, if you ever did decide to relocate, the best region for you, I believe, would be the area of Southern Appalachia, including East Tennessee, and the western parts of the Carolinas. You would feel culturally welcome, as a lot of local traditions are based on English roots, but with a lot of Scots-Irish, some German, and a bit of Cherokee in the mix, plus, obviously, our racially diverse cities, bringing to the shared culture music, food, and various other contributions. You can see the Highland Games, up in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and the Kuumba Festival in Knoxville, TN. The arts community in general is quiet, but persists in many arts. Not sure about general school quality, but we do have good state universities. We also have all four seasons, with mild Winters, and generally, no extreme weather events. Then, there's the broader food culture. You could dine out every night and day, and never go to the same decent place twice in a year.

Growing up on a farm in the 1960's, if my mom wanted to go to the store or shops as you call them, it was a forty- five-minute drive each way. Same with our school bus ride to school each morning, again a forty -five- minute ride each way.

Don't know where you got my family portrait from that is behind you, but keep it. Anyway drove from northern Vermont about 50 miles from Canadian border to Tucson, AZ. Took just under 5 days (2300 miles approx.) Had massive snow storm outside of Buffalo, NY from the great lakes that took most of the day. Two bad things was driving alone and DO NOT drive on Intersate 40 from Missouri into New Mexico. took all day and there is nothing out there

Last winter I move from Atlanta, Georgia, to Blaine, WA, which is on the US/Canada border. Since it was winter and I didn't want to drive through the Rocky Mountains without 4 wheel drive, I went to Sacramento, California, then up to Blaine. It was 3,345 miles and took 55 hours including gas and meal stops. I didn't sop overnight anywhere, but only slept in my truck for a few hours a few hours before hitting the road again.

I remember when I first met my ex from Japan and he asked me how often I visited the beach and he was shocked when I said, “usually ever summer when we visit family in California”. He had no idea how far away Colorado was from the ocean. When my best friends or family tell me they’re going on a long drive I always respond “👀” and they always come back with, “WELL NOT FOR YOU!” since they live in Slovakia 😂

@joebloggs396 Yes, but many of us work in our gardens, ride bicycles, take walks. Coming home from a trip out west, when one gets off the plane, it is so hot and humid that one feels one will drown. I have lived in the deep south my entire life, except for my first three years were in AZ, hot, but not humid. I am sixty-three and have yet to acclimate to the climate in Alabama. Our next house will have a pool and I will jump in the pool after just a few minutes of gardening. I know this because we did have a pool when I was growing up. Oh, do I ever miss a pool!

Don't be deceived by population density figures. If you look at population density in the US as a whole, we'll look very sparsely populated, but that's not the real story. We have very densely populated coasts and a whole lot of wilderness and cropland without human settlement in the middle.
