    Southern region is so vague as to be a useless term. Kentucky isn’t the “south”. The OG 13 colony south is one thing. Western South is another. Texas is its own silly place. People speak Spanish in the north. NWS is national.

    Bad lazy article.

      Yeah Kentucky is like…Midwest mixed with mountain people who like to pretend they’re a little south. From my experiences in Kentucky they’re way more Appalachian and Midwest in spirit than Deep South Alabama/South Carolina/Georgia.
