Yeah, I can see that criticism.
Part of the problem is that a lot of Americans aren’t used to being in cities, which becomes an issue when they have to move around an urban environment. A lot of the same issues of not knowing for to be in a city appear in tourists visiting NYC.

It’s not exactly a criticism. I personally have never met an american who was outright rude, just really oblivious of their surroundings. One of my american friends (who is a rather quiet person and feels much more at home here) told me that the US always feels very loud due to advertisements, music, TV being everywhere and you get uses to having to speak very loudly just to be heard.
