Friends told me North Carolina was the Cali of the south (home, camp)

Florida and Texas are def the most Cali like states in the south if I had to guess. But she has only ga, nc, and tennnesee on her list and I’m trying to compromise as best as I can. Honestly I’ll just be glad to be somewhere warmer then the Midwest
Cali is one of a kind. I would not compare it to NC
Agree. I lived in NC (Charlotte) and loved it and have had extensive stays in California for years (love the state as well). Aside from both states having mountains and coastal areas (which are vastly different), the two states are not alike at all, in my opinion.
I’ve noticed that to. A lot of people say it isn’t the south at all. It’s like they see it’s an up and coming state and everybody wants to stake claim or something it’s very interesting
Growing up in California, this comparison to me is ridiculous, and quite a stretch. The culture, politics, weather, attitude, etc. is nothing like California. North Caroiina is the South, California is not. Paint the barn any color you want, it is still a barn at the end.

Both places have barns. One is housed with domesticated animals the other with fruits and nuts.
My mom moved from NC to Orange County CA in the mid-70s. She said it was like a different world. Her first day in high school, she had a teacher yelling at her and she had no idea what she had done and was near tears. She finally figured out he thought she was mocking him when she answered everything with “sir” attached at the end. Other students would quiz her on whether she knew Gomer or Aunt Bea, lol.
So needless to say, the divide is not as great as it probably once was. But it’s still rather large all things considered,
It’s similar to Georgia or South Carolina. Nothing about NC says CA.
