"There are a lot of nuances to life in the US that you can only learn by living here. Nevertheless, we will try to introduce you to some of the more important cultural differences."

May be interesting both to Americans ("What? You mean it's not like this everywhere?") and non-Americans ("They do what in the States?").

Very interesting. I don't agree with all of it, but a lot of it seems pretty accurate.

Interesting! I agree that it's largely accurate.

I wonder if similar guides exist for other countries.

Though I notice that the "Living in the USA" section has some out-of-date information; both of the states I know about now have higher sales tax than this site lists them as having.
