Honestly, Southern states, USA.
I went to Europe for 10 days, fell in love with Vienna, the People (youngest city in EU I believe), culture, etc. they definitely seem smarter and healthier than your avg American. Then I land back in the USA, travel sucks, etc.
Then I hit that Southern bound flight; something feels more alive than anywhere I'd been; the smiles and courtesies, small talk about nothing. IDK what the world thinks of southern race relations thanks to media (we're admittedly cultures apart even living in the same southern city), but a huge babyboomer cowboy helps a black lady with her luggage, and they make a good time of it with perfect pleasantry like old friends meeting again. Everyone feels happy being alive. As the plane descends, the reality of a 100 degree summer hits, but the degree of life and latent happiness overcorrects terrible weather and ugly urban sprawl. Everybody sincerely wants to embody Jesus - liberal or conservative, black or white.
Economic migration has pretty thoroughly distributed criminal neighborhoods to every major hub of the country, but you can get remarkably clean middle class areas with low crime in rural America still.
I would compare the Southern US to my internetted perceptions of Eastern Europe.
I would also say that, having gotten closer to northern British people (traditional/religious/old-fashioned), they bear the gentility and manners that descended to the Southerner. Having become friends with an Irishman after offending him about the troubles (lol), we became good friends and meeting other Irish thru the years, I'd say they have the joviality and down to earth character that descended to the rednecks and hillbilllies.
Swing on by for a visit before it all goes the way of globohomo!
