I found this to be true in almost anyplace I have traveled. Try to learn a few common words and be polite. If the locals know English they will switch to that because it makes things faster.

The only exception I can think of is Puerto Rico outside of the tourist zones. They acted like jaded New Yorkers when I couldn't speak fluent Spanish.
