How would you know, I thought the same way when I was going to Atlanta, stop being so narrow-minded.

Carl Crawford, Left Fielder for the Tampa Bay Rays is a native of Houston. When that dude takes interviews I can't understand what he is saying half the time, he has a SUPER southern accent. You can tell he's from Houston though, it seems like Houstonians have their own slang you can hear it in guys like Paul Wall, Mike Jones, Slim Thug etc.

Well cities like Hosuton, Atlanta, Miami, all have something that jump out at me when i think about them, Dallas , no. Even San Antonio, Orlando and Tampa does as well. Same for Memphis Nashville and New Orleans.

Narrow minded? No I love Florida but I would not want Dallas County over Dade county simple as that. Now Harris County would be up for debate.

Dallas and Houston are such parallel universes. White Dallasites often talk about how country and hickish white Houstonians are. Its so funny that its the opposite for black people.

Maybe we should all just become Asian. They look down on everyone.

You have never been here, so how can you pick Dade Co. over Dallas Co.

Yeah, in Houston you can meet people with REALLY strong southern accents and other who sound extremely neutral (talking about natives). It just all depends on what type of environment they were brought up in.

LOL That is the point. I WOULD Not want too. Nothing in Dallas makes me want to go there. There are cities in Dade and things in Dade that make me want to go there.
