Pretty much everyone generalizes about states. I even did it. You'd be surprised about some states. Connecticut and Mass have some hard ghettos. I never knew that until I visited recently. I am from Wisconsin and I come from a crappy heavily populated rust belt type industrial area in the southeast corner just south of Milwaukee. It had plenty of ghetto to go around. It wasn't southside Chicago ghetto for sure, but it wasn't Malibu or a dairy farm either.

To Nunya:
Hartford and Boston have their rough areas. That is almost common knowledge.

I know better, because I'm from Milwaukee. But sure, I might tend to generalize about other states' denizens as well. East coast - rich. West coast - new age granola earth muffins. South - you know. Louisiana - Voodoo priest or priestess. Etc.

No I don't think they live on a farm if they say they're from Wisconsin. Every state is pretty much the same they either have some farms (or country), ghetto, suburds, town, and ect..
Chicago isn't all ghetto, Indiana isn't all corn fields, Michigan isn't all polluted, Kentucky isn't all that boring and things like that. People have a lot to learn about other states I believe.

Of course I think they live on a dairy farm! I was shocked--shocked! that the one person I met who was from Wisconsin didn't know what time the cows come home (it's 4 pm) because I'm from Pennsylvania and everyone there is Amish and lives on a dairy farm, in case you didn't know.

When I think of wisconsin I think of people in large cities that are built up around one particular industry, however I know this isn't always the case. The only state that people can truly generalise about is Wyoming, because in actuality, Wyoming doesn't exist.

Not exactly, but I think of cheese. I guess I need to visit to see how great Wisconsin is. I live in Maryland on the Eastern Shore and the first thing people think of is "country hicks"

My first thought is Green Bay, which is definitely not dairy farms. But I completely understand where you are coming from. When people here that I'm from Idaho they ask me if I live on a Potato farm and if we have paved roads and electricity.

There's a 'ghetto' in Connecticut and Massachusetts? Hmmm... Guess I haven't made it to them parts...
When I hear Wisconsin I always think -Constipation. But that's probably just me.
