Which is more southern: Richmond (VA) or Houston?

I'm having an ongoing debate about this. Both cities are historically southern, but many people in the Deep South don't consider either to be part of the South anymore. Which do you consider to be more "southern" (culturally, not geographically, obviously)?

Richmond has a NASCAR track. Houston doesn't.

Richmond is more southern, I agree.
Texas is its own thing.

These days, Houston. Richmond is full of Yankee transplants and union politics. Houston is oil and gas and South East transplants.

I was shocked at the amount of Asians in Richmond. For me, Asians are more a part of southern culture than Mexicans so I'm going with Richmond.

Based on zipping through it at 60mph I vote Richmond

Houston has the largest Asian population outside of the West coast. So by your standard, you agree it's Houston.

Richmond is a fantastic Southern city.
Houston is a mega shite hole. It has no culture and everyone is only there for work.

I doubt it has more than NYC.

That's just based on shear volume not per capita

look it up. Maybe it's specific to Vietnamese. Either way, there are a shite ton of Asians in Houston. Posted on 7/26/14 at 12:51 pm to GRTiger
I meant Tigerlee Asians

Oh, then maybe Richmond.
Screw this question on this board. Louisiana people hate them some Houston. People will say Richmond without ever having been to one or the other city.
