The universally known south is usually just called the "Deep South"

In florida the more north you go the more southern it gets

[HutchTheWolf]

If you see 4+ churches every quarter mile; you’re in The South

[collinnapper]

Richmond, Virginia was literally the capitol of the South

If you ask for "tea" at a restaurant and you are automatically given sweet tea, you're in the south.

[andrewdebner]

In what world are Florida and Texas "less south" lmao

[LetsGoPels]

As a Louisiana resident, I can promise to everyone that Tennessee is MOST DEFINITELY a southern state

[charlie-gepe]

Alaska: You're all south to me.
Hawaii: I'm the real south. 😄

[pswizzle]

How is Tennessee not universally considered the south?

[PrezBøbcat]

Florida logic:
The more north, you go, the more southern it gets 😂

[louisadams]

I go by the sweet tea rule. If you ask for sweet tea and they give you a packet of sugar on the side, they ain't southern.

Kentucky, Tennessee, and North Carolina bout to hit somebody

[chestnutters]

Who doesn’t consider NC as part of the south? Virginia I get but there’s no ambiguity at all with NC, it’s southern.

[theEliteNoob]

I would like to argue that Arkansas Kentucky North Carolina and Tennessee are all in the South.

[idonthaveaname]

If your state had a southern accent, it’s southern

[Smokymountainoutdoors]

As a Tennessee man that is a hate crime

[michaelwatts]

Kentucky and Tennessee are definitely south

[antonymous]

Anything below the mason-dixon line is south. That's the most simple way to put it.
And I've never heard anyone deny that texas is southern.

[jesse_cole]

Florida is "Beyond the South, " not the South. We in the true "South" think of Florida as being its own thing. Same with Texas, really. Texas is the Lonestar State, and it almost seems like a separate country. The states you mentioned above us (Kentucky, etc) are on the Mason-Dixon line, so they're in a gray area. They're neither North nor South. Delaware is DEFINITELY not the South, and Washington DC is a symbol of the North to many people in the South. So what you really have is the real South, and scattered around it are Alligator Land (FL), YeeHaw's-ville (TX), the "Buffer Zone" (KY, WV, etc), "Corruption City" (DC), and just "The North" (Delaware).
