Not necessarily more agressive--but live faster lives than do people in the south, southwest, mid-west, and northwest. In general, people in the northeast go further in school, really compete for those good jobs, and play dirty if it means getting them ahead.

No that's heresay as far as I know. I live in the south and there is lots of folks here that are aggresive.. Look it's not limited to east, west, north or south. Lots of people are aggresive no matter where they live.

i have actually heard and kind of noticed that. i am a native chicago-an and i have lived here my whole life minus one year when i lived in sunny orlando and i DID notice that i was happier and seemed to get more done during the day and that everyone around me was much more laid back compared to chicago where everyone is crabby and in a hurry and rude to total strangers regularly. i didn't notice it until i heard somewhere that it has to do with the weather, literally. that people that live in warmer, sunnier climates seemed to report less stress than people that lived in cooler, cloudier climates.

Actually there are a lot of studies that link heat and anger. You may want to be more specific about what kind of aggression you mean.

I don't think so...if anything the southerners are the ones with tempers.
