I have lived in Texas for the past twenty five years, but I lived in NC for three years during my school aged years. I loved it. (We also lived in Virginia for three years and I loved it there too.)
I have visited NC several times since then - in fact, my husband and I go to Asheville a couple of times a year. We would like to visit the Outer Banks this next year - I've been before but he has never been.
In my opinion, NC offers some of the best of the following:
1. Mountains
2. Beaches
3. Beautiful little small towns
4. American history
5. Southern culture and hospitality
NC is one of my favorite states and I consider it a national treasure!
Same here. I compare it to Virginia. Southern in name only. TN is headed down the same road.
I guess if you think there's no NC outside of the Triangle and Charlotte you'd think that. Even in those areas there's plenty of Southern culture present.

No, I have lived in NC. I have been all over the state. I don't consider the state Southern. At one time, yes. Currently, no. NC is the same as Virginia. More Mid-Atlantic than Southern.

So what are the mid atlantic states? Everybody that I have met from NC looks at themselves as Southerners.
What comes to mind in other southern states when one thinks of North Carolina? Positive or negative, just asking out of curiosity. I've lived in NC my whole life and I've always wondered what other southerners think of us.
Not technically southern but being Floridian, I've always associated North Carolina with education, diversity, and white-collar jobs.
Some of ya'll think you have to be Mississippi to be southern.
