Salzburg - Post Report Question and Answers
Are there problems with ethnic, race/racial minorities or religious prejudices? Gender equality?
Austrians unfortunately can be slightly racist. The target of many of their insults are the Turks that live in the city. Statistically they feel even stronger emotions towards the Turks than the Germans. The main source of conflict is to those Turks that have not assimilate nor speak German, those assimilated will not have an issue. Austrians are not as politically correct as Americans, so do not read too much into their comments if something rubs you the wrong way, much of it is out of ignorance. - Mar 2011
