According to your answers, you are most like North Carolinians in Wake, Vance, and Carteret counties.


I've lived in Pitt, Franklin, and now Davidson counties (grew up in NY State)...of the three, I feel most at home in Davidson County.

Only 25% of respondents are NASCAR fans? I'm surprised that number is so low. I'm not a fan, but know a ton of people that are.

I'm a NASCAR fan and don't need no survey.

From Moore CO.

Charlotte, 81 miles
Darlington, 71 miles
Martinsville, 123 miles.

I didn't need a survey, all I needed was a map.

Wake, Madison, and Jones. The latter I remember is where that desolate stretch of Highway 70 from Kinston to New Bern is located. Madison I went through once and remember seeing confederate flags among beautiful mountain backdrops.

I guess Wake would be the winner.

I got Wake, Mecklenburg, and Wilkes County. I enjoy spending time in Wake and Mecklenburg county. I've never been to Wilkes county.

Interesting: I got the same results. I would have expected Chatham, as I am a liberal with no Southern accent. I have no idea why Clay County way out in the mountains is a match. Then does Pamlico have a lot of transplants? Or is this all a statistical fluke with no significance?

It picked Watauga, Edgecombe, and Wilson for me. I would NEVER live in eastern NC, other than maybe on the coast. I even picked Lexington barbecue as my choice. The survey should have asked about beach and mountain preferences. At least it was close with Watauga, since I live in Avery. Forsyth would be my second choice.

The three counties chosen for me are counties I never been in or drove through without stopping.
The counties chosen for me are: was Jackson, Jones and Harnett counties. I would like for Jones county to be on my bucket list of place to explore because of it has a lot of history.

I took it and it showed:

Gaston, Warren, and Cherokee counties.

I wouldn't live in any of them, so the poll is .... well interesting at best.
