The saying used to be if the county courthouse had a Confederate statue in front of it, it was southern.
My county courthouse in Oklahoma still has a Confederate Soldier memorial and Oklahoma didn't become a state until 1907.
And it's sure as shite not southern. To me, southern states have a higher percentage of African American population. All southern states have been heavily influenced by blacks over the centuries.
Texas fits western way more than southern.

You fought with the confederacy. You drink sweet tea, you eat fried food. You are southern.

To me it’s clearly southern and only commie f@gs from California who move there try to claim it’s western. What says the OT?

East Texas is as Southern as Southern gets.

Orange, TX is 30 min from Lake Charles.
El Paso is 45min from Las Cruces, NM.
It’s both and an absolute bitch to drive across.

"They" conveniently claim whatever benefits them. Sometimes I wish that the seceding movement would actually happen. There would be benefits for both sides.

Southern, especially since all of the metros are in the East of the state. And the people are generally nice.

It's both. It's just like Louisiana in that it has two distinct parts.
North Louisiana is southern. South Louisiana is a banana republic.

Once you get out past Fort Worth the accent is more midwestern than southern.
That accent is not at all midwestern. That’s by god West Texas.

They wear cowboy hats in Texas and in Westerns. So I say western.
