S. LA (South of I-10) has a diff species of redneck endearingly termed "Coons"
No, no, no, NO!
The endearing term is "Coonass."
HUGE difference!
Call someone a coonass and they'll laugh with.
Call someone a coon and you've got yourself a problem.

It bordered the Gulf some 200 million years ago.

The governor says Louisiana is the north, now.

Memphis actually refers to itself as the "Mid-South" FWIW.
As does parts of the MS Delta, and the Delta is definately Deep South.

Good point. La. is a different kind of place. Mix all the ingredients together and you make a great gumbo. As Cajuns go, you really have bayou, plantation, and prairie Cajuns. The lines overlap in many cases.
You could also say this about every other state in the south. People from the Delta are culturally different from folks from the Hills or Piney woods, Mobile AL culture is different from the culture of someone from Fort Payne Alabama.
There is a lot of overlap and they are all considered southern but there are noticeable differences

I'm pretty sure the deep south starts at Garden Banks 471.

Seriously? Yes, as someone mentioned, Louisiana, Mississippi, Bama & Georgia is the deep south.

I don't really. Losuiana has none of the civility or manners that the Deep South is known for.

The protestant areas are, the Catholic ones are their own place
