I've not traveled to all 50 states, but CA seems to take the cake for the places I have been.

Florida is iffy because it's a place where so many others move to. A lot of people there aren't naturally born there,..but I guess it can count.

Florida Man is singlehandedly responsible for some of the greatest headlines in print journalism.

Too true. From personal experience, east coasters are very high and mighty with their "progressive" values and purported "inclusiveness," but roll through suburban DC/Bethesda, Northern Jersey, etc., the hoods are completely segregated and not a minority to be seen for miles, save for maids/nannies. Total do as I say not as I do folks.

Flip a few of the words used and you could say much of the same about the deep south.

There are some weird people I've met in South Florida. Granted most are from other places. Native Floridians are majority good people. I met a lot of crazies when I did home health in sand Diego County especially out in the desert.

This is actually true. I live in Austin and the vast majority of people have absolutely zero social skills. Very socially awkward population.

this thread reminds me of a joke map.

I was living on Long Island.

the map showed the USA from the point of view of NYC.

you could see NJ and Philadelphia. waaaay off in the distance was Pittsburgh, PA.

flyover country was a thin line at the horizon.

Alaska. Alaska collects proactively weird people, as opposed to just passively weird people who you have to meet to discover that they are weird. Like in-your-face, 'I'm so weird I can't fit in in the lower 48' or 'I want to live out on the razor's edge' type people.

The PNW is a bubble unto itself and has two cities where the people are just "different" and operate on a separate speed and stoned-out wavelength than the rest of the country: Portland and Seattle.

California has a ton of people (well, SoCal and the Bay do) so as with any huge population, you're going to get a good amount of weird people, but the average person there is really not that weird.

Austin is like a cleaner, nicer, less diverse (in a good way) version of Dallas these days. 20+ years ago, it had a dramatically lower population and was, at that time, a collection of weirdos from Texas who didn't fit in in Houston, Dallas, Ft. Worth, San Antonio, or any of the small towns or smaller cities. Now it is mostly white collar nouveau riche, not that there's anything wrong with that.

I would have thought so too. Visited a few times and accepted a job here. It's largely tech based, so there's a lot of IT mindsets here.
