Surprised you are actually still living, you should have a tee shirt made like they have at amusement parks that reads."I survived the south" !

I've always lived in Cleveland. When I do visit friends and relatives in the South it is so different there than it is in the North. It is like visiting another country. I don't think that I could ever live there.
As for knowing nothing about life and the city, I think that's a generalization on your part. There are many people that live in the North that know nothing about life and the city. There are many people in the South that know everything about life and the city. It just depends on who you are talking to.

I was raised in the North, New England, and currently live in the South....I much prefer the North. The diversity of language, culture, foods, ideas...all appeal to me. I find the South, famous for its hospitality, not very hospitable. The area I live in is clannish, if you aren't from a particular family line, you aren't part of anything. I am sure this isn't true all over the South, but for me? Give me the North, where people tell it to your face and not behind your back.

City people know nothing about life in the country. City life disgusts many people in the south. The only way you hear about a southerner having trouble in a city is by being robbed by some crackhead or something. City people in the country are constantly getting lost, drowning , killed by bears, lost in blizzards etc. You stay up there and I'll stay down here and we will all be happy.

It depends on the individual city. I love New York but hate Philadelphia. I love Nashville but hate Atlanta. I love Seattle -- that's North, but everyone categorizes it as West Coast because it's an ENTIRELY different lifestyle than the Northeast. I love L.A.--- it's South, but it's definitely not THE South-- again, it's the West. So I think these distinctions you are giving are too narrow. I think you have to judge by the individual city.

I would live in the south because people are more friendly and willing to lend a helping hand. All the northern people I have met are too worried about impressing everyone else and then talking about those people behind their backs. What is so great about a city anyways? Who wants to have every minute of their life rushed?

West. I'm totally over the north and the south. People up north and down south are ignorant bickering @ssholes.

Depends on where in the South you go - and depends on where in the North you go. I know some pretty backwards rednecks from New Jersey. Pennsylvania and Ohio have some of the worst I've ever seen. Idiots are everywhere.
