I consider culturally “The South” to be only Alabama, Missippi, Georgia, Louisiana, South Carolina.
Next one in would be Arkansas.

Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri, And New Mexico are southwest, more west and not part of the antebellum “south”
North Carolina, Virginia, And Md east of 95 is basically the mid Atlantic states, farming country, of revolutionary times
WVA, Kentucky, Tenn, and western Carolina, western VA are all part of Appalachia

Deep South, not even close.

I consider parts of Texas the south. North starts with Austin.

Gotta love a bunch of ostracized Frenchies from Nova Scotia trying to define if Texans are kick arse or not.

The amount of Texans that really believe this is a little disturbing. Texas really is an awesome state, but get a grip.

There are a lot of fantastic places to live in the United States outside of the Texas border.

Texas is Texas

Just like South La is South La

I dont consider either Southern in regards to the typical characteristics

Georgia, mississippi, north LA,alabama, south carolina, and the non mountain parts of tenn and NC feel like the same place to me

south la and texas in their own rights feels culturally different

Texans don't watch Veep. That's for women and Cajuns.

They have them in lots of places, doesn’t make Texas part of the south.

Ok, I get the whole "it's for women" joke because it involves a woman as President (can you even imagine such a travesty?), but how is Veep for Cajuns?
