On farms. That was where the term came from. People called farmers rednecks because a lot of them had sunburns on the back of their necks only. Rednecks are the reason the rest of us get to eat every day.

Living in the South, I can tell you that Rednecks are all around me. However, I can show you some Rednecks in the (really) rural parts of upstate NY that will make you think the Southern Rednecks graduated from Yale!!

Generally speaking, the area of the US south of Interstate 40, from the West Texas border to the east coast, is redneck country. We live in this area because we don't understand the rest of you folks. No offense intended.
