Its funny how you guys think that my opinion is wrong. I live here. I'm looking at it from a culture stand point I don't see it. I've already made a post. You ask and I responded. This is stupid ie all these cities are in the south. They all have some type of southern heritage but moving from LA to here I do not see it. (My opinion) anything else?
But how much experience do you have with the other cities being talked about? Charlotte is far from being the most culturally southern city in the region, but LESS southern than Atlanta, Dallas, Houston and Austin? Not a chance.

You must have very little experience with the Texas cities especially Austin.
He apparently has had ZERO experience with Atlanta.
Try Texas West of the Pecos River. El Paso is the only truly Southwestern city in Texas. Though I do believe that Texas is a state where East meets West, or South meets Southwest. It's just that about 90% of Texas' population is within the portion of the state that is Southern.
I'd say it's more like everything west of I-35 is southwestern but whatever the percentage Texas is one of those states where different regions meet. Texas in my opinion draws influence from not only the south but southwest and a little Midwest thrown in. This state can't be easily pigeonholed into any particular region. We have our own distinct flavor.

Nothing that I know of. I just never understand what people mean when they say that Texas has one identity that is a mixture of South, Midwest and Southwest. North Texas and the Panhandle obviously bare similarities to the MW but the only part of the state that seems to be an actual mixture of south and southwest is central Texas.
