Which city is more Southern, DC or Miami? (better, largest, Los Angeles) - City vs. City - Page 4 - City-Data Forum

Miami is "New South" alot like Charollette, Atlanta, Austin, etc.

But also way differently than the Northeast as well.
It's at a crossroad between North and South, both architecturally and culturally, IMO.

Maybe gold fronts, but gold teeth have been around in the south for generations. And it is mainly recognized as being something of the south, not NY.

I have noticed though that DC has a fair amount of dudes that rock dreads as well.

Man, you people generalize too much. Ofcourse theres people in New York that wear dreads, maybe not as much as other cities but to say NO ONE? C'mon now. Every city has people that can dress, people that can't dress, people with gold teeth and dreads, people without gold teeth and dreads. Too many stereotypes on this site.
