So I might as well contribute something on my stay here, if any members disagree with me, please do tell.
So right now I am not in the US but when I am in the states, the area I am in is NYC. I could not have been happier to be in NYC because of where I grew up. I was born in California and my family moved to Georgia when I was 9 years old. From the age of 9 to the age of 21 or so, I spent my life in Georgia and looking back at it I did not know how I am still standing. The area of GA I was in was Augusta (specifically Richmond County) and then I went away for college.
Now Florida and Texas are not considered the south in my experience, people down there just don't consider them the traditional south. When they say south, they mean Georgia, Alabama, South Carolina, Tennessee, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Arkansas. Virginia and North Carolina are apparently a different kind of south to them. The states in bold I realized are kind of the same culturally.
I was in Georgia (Augusta) for two months earlier this year. It hasn't really changed that much. My 5 things are based on most of the south and not world class cities like Atlanta there.
Here are some good things
1. low cost of living
2. not a lot of taxes
3. They have football, if you love football then go there!
4. It isn't as segregated as some other areas
5. Great place to retire as some say!
AND Here are 5 things I learned.
1. Southern Hospitality doesn't really exist. I shock people when I say this but I have met better people in NYC than I met while I was in Georgia. The south is no different than anywhere else, the only thing is people down south may disguise their bad intentions and their hatred for you while people up north tend to put it out in the open (will call you out if they have an issue). Now in tourist destinations (Charleston) it may exist but in most of the south if you aren't like them, you are going to be greeted with hatred. In my experience, Southerners are hands down the most intolerant and hateful people. DO NOT SAY YOU LIKE SOCCER, they will ridicule you for that too.
2. The weather down there is far from nice, especially summers. I remember we would get so many bugs and snakes outside, lots of humidity, and the heat was literally unbearable. We did not have winters where I lived and were fortunate to have any snowflake drop. Some years we would have over 100 degree weather in January. The weather changed like crazy, on week you would have temperatures in the 50s and then later on that week they would get to the high 80s. It was really easy to get sick down there.
3. It is so poor compared to the rest of the country. Parts of the south had some of the worst poverty I have seen. Entire high schools based on trailers, not enough books, school cafeterias running out of food often, people going to use restrooms in outhouses, and most of GA was ghetto as fuck to me (torn down houses and everything). The amount of poverty I witnessed there is unfathomable to me still.
4. Quality of women in the south is a lot lower than the quality of women elsewhere, and there is hardly much diversity. I saw exponentially more whales in the south than I saw anywhere else in the country or even the world so far. There is not much diversity, basically you have two kinds of women down south:
1. Anglo White women (not many Italians, Eastern Euros, etc.)
2. Black women
After that the diversity sprinkles out. You get sprinkles of Asians and Latinos but majority are FOBs. If I had to break down the south it would be that 30 percent of women there are 6s and above, 70 percent are 5s and below. I found that Black women down south were a lot more approachable than White women, it isn't the case up here in NYC as both are equally approachable.
5. Being a particular minority won't hurt you, being a minority in general will. Reading some posts I know you guys are curious about what kind of guys kill it down there and get the top quality vag, the answer is, it is almost always WASP guys. In Atlanta and really big cities you get exceptions but say in places like Athens, GA for example, it is the WASP guys. When I went to a mostly White college down there, I struggled to get with 6s and above just as much as my Black, Chinese, Indian, and Latino friends. Here in NYC I notice all kinds of men do good, their game and status and lifestyle matter more than ethnic appearance, not in the south. Generally, minorities dates minorities down there (blacks and asians, blacks and hispanics, hispanics and asians, indians and asians, asians and hispanics) more so than dating Whites. Even if girls down there who are White do like you, they won't date you due to how hard of a time guys down there will give them. In Atlanta this will not be the case and probably won't be the case in Charleston but it will be the case in most of the small cities.

So how in the world did it help me?
After living in the south I have become more humble. I do think I have lower standards as my friends say. A 5 in NYC is a 6 to me for example. I am more grateful for what I have in life rather than whining about what hasn't been given to me like a lot of my friends up here. What I have noticed is that my other friends (Black, Asian, Indian, other races) that struggled down south are doing much better in the areas they have moved to. The struggles I went to in the south from being excluded from hanging out with certain groups to not being able to date the best women due to social restrictions (see post 5) caused me to endlessly approach in big cities. Rejections in NYC mean nothing to me, I have done great there and even better in Europe.
I love that we have normal temperatures in other places and people are a lot more reasonable and understanding.
