The Cajun country of South Louisiana is one of many small regions interspersed throughout the U.S. where nearly everyone seems to have grown up nearby. In several rural parishes there, roughly 9 out of every 10 adults were born in the state. The local makeup elsewhere is far different, with as few as 1 in 10 adults born in-state in counties in Florida and Nevada.

Just look at Middle/South Florida

It's no wonder they're so fricked up. Families come from places like NY and Ohio, dads have affairs, moms get implants and develop drinking problems, kids become absolute psychopaths and shoot up schools or eat peoples' faces on bath salts

Nothing new here. Article from The NY Times in 2002 about Vacherie:

https://www.nytimes.com/2002/09/30/us/born-on-the-bayou-and-barely-feeling-any-urge-to-roam.html

quote:

Carved out of sugar cane fields and crowding the Mississippi River about 30 miles west of New Orleans, Vacherie is a stupendously static exception to the American rule of wander. With an almost total absence of population mobility, it is the most rooted town in the most rooted state in the country. Vacherie is also the stay-at-home capital of Cajun country, which is saying something. For this part of Louisiana, a region of swamps, snakes and petrochemical plants, is home to what historians describe as one of the most stable populations in the history of North America. As such, Vacherie offers a primer on what forces in American life are still strong enough to keep young people in their mother's area code.

It goes up the coast too. Damn transplants.
At least most of the crazy stuff happens around or below the I4 corridor.
