Here are a few opinion-free, “pulp” observations of Vienna:

– people take the time to hang their coats on coat hangers and put their umbrellas in umbrella bins;

– it appears safe for small children to walk by themselves on the street;

– you have to pay attention to the writing on restaurant windows: “cafe-restaurant” is very different than “cafe-bar” or “cafe-lounge”;

– you as the paying customer of course have rights, but don’t assume you are the center of the universe;

– there are very few balconies;

– there is still a fascination with American gospel music;

– general dress code leans towards the practical;

– there are many boutique stores with various paraphernalia that seem to get foot traffic.
