Saying "what is the difference between Americans and the rest of the world" is akin to saying "What is the difference of europeans to the rest of the world".

We all know that the Dutch are the same as the Irish, right?

I think one of the main differences is just the mix we still have. It makes the social dynamic still fresh. Some neighborhoods are already settled in their ways, while some still have a large immigrant influx. We have families having 1 kid, and some having 12. We have devout religious followings, and vehement athiests.

I guess the only thing we have, generally, in common is that our standard of living is higher than most. We are getting crowded, but houses, even after the bubble, are still marginally affordable.

We worry a lot more about things we have little control over and are losing control over the things we should pay more attension to.

That is about all I can see. And that is not very different than other nations....
