You're delusional. Southern culture is still high and prominant. "Yankee" immigration as you put it is not enough to change the fact these states are demographically, culturally, and linguistically Southern. You have no proof to your claims and all you do is make things up to suit yourself. You're nuts and full of it. The South is not going away. Hopefully you are.
Wrong. Raleigh is 20 years away from being fully Mid-Atlantic. Just like NoVA. It will be part of this liberal, economically powerful, diverse region with Yankee culture aplenty. More New Yorkers have moved to NC in the past ten years than any other state not called Florida.
Just like many people have said, a place doesn't always have to be southern simply because it used to be southern. Times have changed.
Oh all those things mean something to me, Mr. I think I know everything about nlst. Based on living in D.C. hahahaha. How does a street make a place Southern? I have family that lives in D.C. They're not Southern. And that University of North Carolina study kills anything you throw forward. So shut up and get lost before I embarrass you.
Those things mean nothing to you. It's really easy to expose your knowledge of the area (or lack thereof) by just asking things you can't Google. Like, for example, what color are vehicle inspection stickers for DC this year? What color were they two years ago? Four years ago? 8 years ago? Have vehicle inspections changed? If so, how have they changed?
What used to be at the current site of Potomac Yards?
What was the name of the old movie theater in Alexandria?
What long time DC store (and local favorite) burned down in flames not that long ago?
Where is "your job your credit?" If you can't answer that, then you really know nada about the area.

I don't have to be a genius that's lived there to figure out D.C. I've got relatives who feed me the information I need. I suggest you stick to Brooklyn. And Raleigh only 20 years away from being Mid-Atlantic...where is your supposed proof of this. You're telling me that North Carolina will be part of the Northeast in 20 years? When Virginia still is not? You're f****** crazy. And delusional. LMAO Raleigh will be Mid-Atlantic in 20 years. North Carolina is not the next Florida. Neither is Virginia. Go home.

Just like NOVA. Raleigh and NOVA are nothing alike. You've never been to either if you believe that. I've had enough of you. Just take your fountain of useless information and dump it on somebody who gives two cents worth. Personally, I wouldn't give you a penny.
And being a little over an hour apart its not all that surprising
To me Philly and Baltimore share a similar accent just sounding a little different (hate to say it one with more northern influence and one with more southern influence as this seems contentious). Whereas Philly and NYC have pretty different accents but share a similar abrassivness in tone not accent
To me it may be why people with a Philly accent will at times outside the area be associated with NYC where I dont think think that happens as much with the Baltimore accent. That is the abrasiveness in tone not accent whereas I can hear the similarities in accent pronounciation for Philly and Baltimore that is less common in either to NYC
Philadelphia and New York City are actually part of what makes up the Mid-Atlantic Region. But when most people think of Mid-Atlantic cities Washington DC. and Baltimore come to mind. Most people seem to forget that New York City and Philadelphia are also Mid-Atlantic cites too, just like Baltimore and Washington DC are. Why do most people think of them as not being part of this region.
Mid-Atlantic is basically Maryland, Virginia, DC, Delaware, and maybe South Jersey. Philly might be mid-Atlantic, but NYC and North Jersey definitely are not. They are solidly Northeast.
I don't know about anyone else, but I always thought the term Mid-Atlantic referred to the part of the East Coast that's basically in the transition zone between the Northeast and the southern states. So if Virginia (south of the DC area) is southern, and Philly and North Jersey are the Northeast, then Maryland, Northern Virginia, DC, Delaware, and maybe South Jersey would be mid-Atlantic, because it's in the transition zone. Hence, mid Atlantic.
Poor example, bruh. Snoop is indecipherable to people from Baltimore as well.
