      I’ve always considered St. Louis, and everything southeast of it, „The South“. (I’m from St. Louis.)

      I usually roll my eyes at these for how inaccurate they are but this one is pretty damn close to spot on. Well done.

      My subjective eyes would move it red thru Knoxville and just exclude Texas.

      Take that yellow area all the way up to I-70 from Pittsburgh to St Louis.

      Having grown up in Kentucky, that part is accurate, except I think „The South“ extends further into the western part of the state.

      New Orleans isn’t Cajun. Should probably call that area Cajun-Creole.

      I’d consider the eastern shore of Virginia (the peninsula next to VA) part of tidewater. Culturally their very southern. Not really accents or vocabulary but the food, morals and politics fit into the rest of southern / tidewater culture. Some older folks have tangier or smith island accents, which are harder to understand like other Deep South accents. There’s more to argue about the eastern shore of Maryland being southern. Also I assumed larger portions of Georgia and Louisiana are Deep South. Awesome map though you did a great job!

      The DelMarVa (eastern MD, eastern VA, and southern DE) also align very well with the South, culturally. I’d give it the „South Lite“ classification.

      The Big Thicket/piney woods isn’t really the quintessential “heart of Texas” imo. Nor is the gulf coast

      Rural Southern Indiana, is “South Light”. Louisville may be excluded as it’s more of a midwest city.

      Eastern NC is MUCH more “southern” than western or central NC in my experience. Lots of hog farms and small towns until you get to the coast

      Honestly kind of insane you don’t include rural Georgia and sc the Deep South. I live on the coast and I know we aren’t Deep South but Valdosta Albany are

      Do both black and white people who live there share „southern culture“? (I’m not American)

      This is a good map. Curious why you didn’t extend the coloring to the eastern part of VA. Are you thinking that’s more of a Chesapeake culture? I think I’d either extend south lite to the Chesapeake region or have it be yellow to represent its own, related, Chesapeake culture.

      No way Durham and Tallahassee are both the South but the vast wasteland between Raleigh, Wilmington, Greenville, and Lumberton are South Lite.

      Charleston, SC is where the civil war started. Very much part of the Deep South. I would say that most of SC is very similar to ga, al, ms, and la

      Feels like „south“ should extend across NC except for Charlotte. Western NC feels way less southern than eastern. Western NC has that mountain crunchy feel in alot of places.

      This sounds weird but I think “the South” is dipping a little too deeply into Florida. That area is covering the Orlando area which is definitely not very Southern.
