This thread is an excellent exercise on tolerance. It's always funny to take shots until it's your ox being gored. Keep that in mind peeps when you put someone else or some other group of folks in your bulls-eye.
End of sermon.
1- Monroe is on route 74, not route 70.
2- Lumberton may have two Walmarts, but one of those stores is a Neighborhood Market. If they included the rest of Robeson county, then they could say two since Pembroke has a Walmart.If he was using the white population as a criterion (he mentioned that Smithfield was 70% white), then Lumberton isn't very white. Fayetteville is barely more white than black.
-Jacksonville definitely has quite a few pawn shops, trailer parks, and cheap, trashy looking motels.
I'm surprised Wendell and Zebulon aren't on here. It is where Lizard Lick Towing was filmed.

This was clearly the opinions of a Durham based Triangle resident. Which is funny given the fact that the love affair with college level sports is VERY southern. Also, NC's only Cabella's is in Wake county. And just like how city-data was all over a K-Mart closing, the Triangle forum was buzzing over Cabela's opening.
Same here. There are plenty of other non-redneck areas of NC. Granted, some of this stuff was spot on, but still.
Ok. Asheville! lol!

I didn't understand the Fayetteville inclusion...
...but Robeson County is the Native, hybrid-Native version of the group that fits the descriptors highlighted by the video.
These two towns are great towns, but the level of redneck-ish is a little high strung...the teenagers hang out in the cook-out parking lots, sheetz parking lots, and the walmart parking lots. It's nice to see them still going out to engage with eachother, but their trucks are loud, they don't look that great, and they are all extremely spoiled.
Sampson (hollerin' contest), Wilkes Co. (home of the 'shine), Chatham, Randolph... the list goes on and on... at least 90% of NC... Undebatable
