I agree with JMT, Miss Missy! Good map! Might label certain areas different, might expand/contract a bit...but all in all, there is not a lot to argue with as in the sense of truly rearranging it!
Thank YOU for providing the link to the map! It's true that the regions in the South (and elsewhere) don't necessarily follow state lines. I know, culturally, we here in East Tennessee have a lot more in common with Eastern Kentucky than we do with our own state capital Nashville.
I havent ever been to virginia, arkansas or texas but I usually think of arkansas and texas as southern but not virginia. Again, havent been there so dont really know how they are...Florida on the other hand, in my opinion, is not southern to me at all even though they are the most southern state...weird. I'm sure it used to just as southern as georgia but all the northern transplants have come down there and made it feel another northern state. I went to college down in florida for a yr and I was made fun of (all in fun) when I said "yall" and just the way my accent sounds. It just doesnt feel southern to me because no accent, no southern hospitality, not really any southern culture or traits of any kind. Northern florida might be different because ive never stayed there just driven through. Maybe thats just me though.
Florida: The only state in the US that gets more "Southern" the further North you go
I disagree with it, because very little of Georgia's mountains are even included in the mountainous area, while the mountainous area extends too far to the east in North Carolina, and encompasses areas of South Carolina that aren't even in the mountains. Furthermore, it doesn't even go into northern Alabama, where the Appalachian highlands end.
Furthermore, if you read the description for deep south, it says "flat", when much of that so-called "flat area", particularly in Georgia and Alabama, is very hilly.

Oh, well I didn't notice that part but overall I think it is good
