The city have an interesting architeture, but the same can´t be said about its population. Many of them are sons of politicians, what make the phrase "You know who you´re talking to?" pretty common. Others are agressive or dull, and very few people are worried about using brains in a conversation. Preconception and ignorance are perceived not only between the poor, but in the rich as well.
Concerts and cultural activites were scarce few years ago, but today are more often. The people, however, seems to lack simple rules of education. Agressions and bad behavior as smoking in concerts (and burning passing people with cigarettes) or talking to cell phones in movies are usual.
