The 14 states in the south are last at the bottom in EVERY CATEGORY.
School systems, obesity, divorce rates, early marriage and the list goes on.
Trailers in LA? Of course the trailers outnumber the houses!!!
Your comments are really laughable
LOL, its about time you came back to respond to me. I'm glad you decided to be a little "snitch" instead of standing up for yourself when no aggression was directed towards you. If it bothers you self-esteem so much, I'll remove it. I'm sure the original poster doesn't care. Insults like these are common to make, I don't have to settle all my disputes over a cup of Starbucks, brah.
Who said anything about trailers? I'm pretty sure trailers are the NJ equilivant of a housing project. Also, housing is cheap compared to NJ standards. I can get 4bed/2.5 bath brick 08+ construction with 0.5 acres for 210-300k. here.
School systems: Why the heck would I send my child to most districts in the state? I grew up in private schools which are very good and affordable here. I don't rely on government to provide education.
Obesity: Yes, there are obese people, generally in the rural areas due to poverty/greasy food in these areas. Credited. Doesn't mean everyone is a monster like you'd think.
Early Marriage: Not sure on the stats. on this. However, early marriage, with kids in the picture is better than no marriage at all, imo.
and the list goes on: Continue on your pointless tyrade against all things Deep South in the United States. Its bedtime for me. I've got many exciting things to do in my life in the Deep South.
I agree that any state not in the South is essentially "Yankee." Just thinking back to when I was in high school [a long time ago] and history classes would discuss the Civil War. The impression of the Confederacy is quite negative in attitudes & textbook = no question the "bad guys" were the Southerners. The racial strive in the South only reinforces attitudes that California is a "Yankee" state & definitely sides with the rest of the nation in expressing contempt for the Confederacy.

The reason why you can get a house for so cheap is because you are surrounded by rednecks and have ZERO entertainment near you.
Also, poor transit options and school systems
School Systems - Most public schools in the north are better than the private schools in the south . My sister and I are perfect examples to back up this statement.
Obesity - Every region has obesity problems but the south has it the worst. I lived in NJ, TX and Arizona and have NEVER seen anything like the people in SC. The people look like whales!!!
Divorce rates are a nationwide problem but they occur more in the south than any other region in the United States
Maybe because people there get married at the age of 16?
So I have responded to your tantrum. And now you will go back onto my ignore list
Chill out man. Go take a dip with scoal and watch nascar like everyone else in the deep south.
Yankee --> CA, Midwest, NE above Mason-Dixon Line....and proud of it.
If you're still fighting the Civil War and still can't accept the fact that the Yankees won, you have my sympathy. You certainly don't have my respect.
