What's the difference between White Trash, Hillbillies, and Rednecks?

Me and my country club buddies were having a good chuckle discussing poor people over cocktails and some BLTs, when we found ourselves in a debate on what made some one white trash and what made some one a redneck or a hillbilly.
My argument is that White Trash folks are your typical poor white people who wear wife beaters, Jimmy Graham jerseys, camo shorts, chains and have a love for urban culture and music. They are usually seen driving Yellow dodge trucks or mustangs(ex. Kenner Brah)
A redneck to me, is someone who is poor, wears nascar stuff, hates Obama and urban culture, drives an older model ford or chevy, and drinks Busch Light (ex. Beauregard parish trash)
And I really think a hillbilly is just redneck that lives in Tennessee, Kentucky, North Carolina, or West Virginia
Thoughts, OT? We need some help here

You have it right, I think.
Hillbillies have a slightly more unique culture and accent due to the isolation of the Appalachians, but they are by and by rednecks.

Pretty close I think.
Rednecks are probably into southern culture by nature. White trash can be ghetto (including the infamous hick rapper breed).

A person that considers themselves one of these will look down on the other two.
That's the only difference.

White trash = meth
Hillbillies= moonshine
Rednecks = Budweiser

Disagree. A redneck doesnt have to be poor.

The only difference between a hillbilly and red neck is location. White trash can be found everywhere. Hillbilly, redneck and white trash are not synonymous.

White Trash - sneaky, low lifes. Will do whatever it takes to do as little as possible. Will complain about secks after it. Lazy. Illiterate. Entitled.
Hillbilly - Good ole boy that wasnt blessed with intelligence. Forrest Gump.
Redneck - a more active Hillbilly.

You forgot Woodchucks. They are the Hillbillies of the rural New England. Vermont, New Hampshire, western Mass.

Your analysis is spot-on, IMO.

I agree for the most part but redneck doesn't always equate to poor. I've run into some rich arse rednecks working in oil & gas.

Dunno, but a Good Ole Boy will whip all three of them in a fight.

Rednecks are farmers
A hillbilly "lives off the land" in higher elevations.
White trash lives in filth and occupations vary.

white trash is self explanatory, red neck is a more broad term, not confined to the south, and not always a negative connotation, hillbilly is a broad spectrum too, encompasses everything from Deliverance types to Jerry Jones

IMO, rednecks embrace the overall southern culture. Mainstream country, mainstream beer, mainstream opinions, mainstream vehicles, mainstream food, etc.
Hillbillies have a more niche culture. Fried chicken livers, moonshine, blue grass music, embrace the rural life style, etc.
White trash:
Turn on Netflix and watch Trailer Park Boys.

Real simple:
Hillbillies live in the hills/mountains. Kentucky and WV come to mind.
Rednecks live in the South and fly Rebel flags.
White trash lives in Livingston a Parish.
