    Don’t ever group new Mexico and Texas. They may be close in proximity but are lightyears apart

      Yeah the “south” and the “south west” are two different things. The “south” ends at Texas. Though Arizona does do some stupid shit.

        Texas is difficult. It is its own thing in many ways, and fiercely so. But it’s also large. El Paso is definitely southwestern. Beaumont is definitely Southern. DFW would identify as Texas first, definitely not Southern and definitely not Southwestern.
