I've never been to OK, NC, or SC, but I've been to all the other so-called Southern states. I've also met my share of people from most of them. So, my list is as follows:
The best:
1. Texas: unequivocally the best; there are some stupid people who whine about it because of all the TX pride, but it's a GREAT place!
2. Oklahoma: its people have impressed me, plus my dad loves taking trips there!
3. Georgia: I thought I would hate GA, but I wound up loving it (especially ATL)
4. Mississippi: warm, genteel, laid-back people. I'd retire there...in 50 years, though, but for now it's great to visit
5. Tennessee: Nashville and Memphis rock!
Okay:
6. Louisiana
7. West Virginia
The worst:
8. Alabama: 60-70% of the Alabamians I've met have been complete d**ks. No offense to the few nice people there
9 (tie). Kentucky, Arkansas: both like AL, but with more (and meaner) rednecks
11. Virginia: DC transplants
12. Florida: NY/NJ transplants
I still don't know about NC or SC.

gypsy g: Hmmmm...maybe it's because of all the yankee transplants you have moving down. The native Georgians (or even long time residents) I've met were nice and down-to-earth. Maybe I need to spend more than a few days each time I'm there to get a better feel for GA.

johnboy6073: I stand corrected...partially. I've been to Mobile, and I do remember dock workers in the harbor waving at us as we rode past them on the tour boat. However, anywhere from Lowndes/Montgomery Counties northward still sucks.

Well, you can't properly answer this question until you visit the great State of North Carolina. We are the "poster state" of southern hospitality. "Nothing could be finer than to be in Carolina in the morning....." We are home to the Duke Blue Devils and the North Carolina Tarheels and the North Carolina State Wolfpack and the Wake Forest Demon Deacons and Carolina Panthers and don't forget the 2006 Stanley Cup Champions-Carolina Hurricanes. We have beaches in east of our state and mountains in the west. Come visit us and we will beat out Texas 10 to 1...

Louisiana and Texas. Texas is more used to seeing new people, because it has always been a frontier state and so they speak up a lot to strangers and always try to be upbeat (sometimes sincere sometimes fake, but they're nice). Louisiana, well the French thing just makes them more gregarious and easy going.

I'm from GA, and I've noticed that people from AL are alot nicer than us or any of the other southern states.
People in GA have just become rude, mean and ugly.
