There will be a barrier for sprawl across the border to the north as long as Oklahoma has an income tax. Ardmore, OK, near the border, is barely growing.

I think Sacramento is probably less hated on CD than it is in the state of California. We get knocked on pretty good by the denizens of coastal metros. The closer you get to the Pacific, the more they dislike you.

Yeah at least you guys know we exist, people from SE Florida think anything north of Palm Beach is backwoods even SW FL is considered too redneck for Southeast Florida. One guy at my church in Jacksonville jokengly said that Orlando has no black people (he's white btw). He mostly encountered Hispanics and Whites while he lived down there.

Fresno is even more extreme.
