Some years ago I was mildly invested in the idea of finding 'strong dollar destinations' (locations where due to exchange rates and other economic factors the US Dollar was very performant), and using this research to weight vacation decisions that my wife and I made.
I recall that Greece was one of these locations. (Unfortunately we haven't been there yet.)
Can anyone here shed some more light on the friendliness of the locals in Greece towards (relatively) monied western vacationers? In other words, are people generally happy to welcome visitors, or are the visitors viewed as part of the problem (via, e.g. AirBnB driving up local housing costs, etc)? I know that a lot of how you're received anywhere depends on how you act, so assume that the visitor is a well-behaved westerner whom is interested in embracing the local culture and customs.
