Perhaps you are mistaking not being "welcomed" with simply being 
cautious and needing to get to know you first. I cannot say because I'm 
not in your shoes, however I can say, as an American even, I'm very open 
to people but I find most other people much more reserved. I happen to 
think it's because I'm from back East but maybe I'm wrong. Don't mistake 
somebody who doesn't open their arms up wide to greet you with somebody 
who hates you. (Of course, again, I could be wrong).

You sound bitter.

I, for one, have no problems with hard working, law biding people - 
whoever they are.
