American Culture
It's a little difficult to tell the difference between what is "American culture" and what may be the culture of a region of the United States that you live in.
I know that as a Californian who moved to Iowa 12 years ago, I have sometimes had difficulty figuring out Iowa culture. I make mistakes, get offended, offend others, and I can only imagine how confusing it can be for someone moving from an entirely different country to the U.S.
Below is a list of links that will take you to websites that give information and helpful tips about American Culture. The best thing you can do, though, is find a trusted American friend or teacher who can answer your questions and give you good information about how to best interact with other Americans.
Northeastern University International Students and Scholar Institute
Penn Global International Student and Scholar Services
International Student Guide to the United States of America
