[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Exburban Richmond is more southern than Richmond proper.[/quote]

This really depends. The area around the Country Club of VA, St. Catherine’s and St, Christopher’s is about as southern as it gets. [/quote]

^ This. West End folks who were born and raised in Richmond are definitely southern. My college roommate and her boyfriend were in these circles. They were as southern as the folks from Savannah, NC, or Atlanta.[/quote]

Atlanta feels nothing remotely southern. it’s like DC, a transplant city that’s squished in between two southern states.  [/quote]

Again, totally depends upon WHERE in Atlanta. [/quote]

Atlanta itself is like DC. Majority black, and largely de facto segregated. But the northern suburbs and exurbs of atlanta is largely comparable to northern virginia. the tech corridor here is like alpharetta, with places like south foresyth having a high indian population that work in tech jobs like loudoun. cobb and gwinnett are like fairfax and prince william. nonetheless if you leave 45 minutes outside either region you’re distinctly in the south (probably more noticeably in georgia for obvious reasons)[/quote]
