I agree with Infamous!
If you had gone to some different areas of both Atlanta and Birmingham, you'd have seen different things, too, but it takes a bit of time to really know a city. I'm impressed that you covered so much ground in a week!
FWIW, we have visited New Mexico twice, and loved it both times. Although the weather and landscape are different (both beautiful, but different), we found the people very similar to Southerners.
Re: peaches. Go to the Farmers Market (and Atlanta has a wonderful one) for peaches....or way out in the country where the peach groves are. In Alabama, there are peach farms in Clanton (between Birmingham and Montgomery) and Athens...I'm sure there are others, too.
