I’m from the south and have been to a quite a few of those states (and the ones I haven’t been to, their reputation precedes them). I say this because I wouldn’t really recommend visiting them. Georgia is a pretty good example, as most of the state kinda sucks, outside of Atlanta and maybe Savanna. A lot of these states are just really poor, and it drastically affects their living standards and the people who live there. They might not be a complete monolithic block, but they’re similar more often than not.
Yep. Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, South Carolina, and most of Georgia (Atlanta is pretty different, thus is better).
What about Missouri? The only thing I know about Missouri is that in Fairly Odd Parents, Tom Sawyer says “I ain’t going back, it’s Missouri in there.”
It’s generally not as bad as Mississippi, and it’s forgotten more often. Similar with Louisiana, but more issues with weather and water there.
Those please aren’t a monolith and this whole discussion is super ignorant

Don’t kid yourself, bud.
