jm2000:
Southern Hospitality >>> The rudeness up north
I was born and raised out west, so when I moved out to this part of the country, I couldn't care less who was more rude or hospitable thanwho.

But moving out here after being born and raised in Southern California, I've lived in TN, OH, KY, WV, and spent quite a bit of time in IN.

It didn't take me long to see that the southern hospitality thing was a flat out myth. Y'all are hospitable to your own kind, and that's it. Letsomeone move in from up north or out west, and you'd just as soon spit on their grave for no good reason other than knowing they were an outsider.

southern pride FTL

southern politics FTL

southern stubbornness FTL

southern loyalty FTL

Oh, and the Bible belt is a myth, too. I've certainly met my share of southern people giving the appearance of having a certain loyalty to Christ, butmeeting a Southerner living the lifestyle associated with being a devoted follower of Christ? In almost 10 years of being out here, I've met 4. I'vebeen closely associated with the church the entire time I've been out here, but I've only met 4 people that really personify the religion they arefollowing. Everyone else is more concerned with giving the appearance of living the lifestyle than they are actually living the lifestyle.

And anyone getting ready to put me on blast, consider this: you're probably getting ready to provide evidence to my initial point, which is that y'allaren't as hospitable and congenial as the myth gives you credit for.

QFT...

So glad I'm from directly in the middle (southerners for the most part consider us yankees, and northerners I've met try to deem us country)

I'll just sit in here and watch the fools go back and forth about being from somewhere... thought I will say this

Living in a real urban area> living in a "city" where your neighbor's house isn't directly next to yours

and i truly do agree with this statement. even at the christian school i went too the teachers were worse than the students.
i know that know one is perfect, but you can't call yourself a follower of Christ and still continue to do some of the things that they do

It was a joke. I figured the thread would eventually deteriorate into a LA v. NY argument.

That's why I said, "Let me be the first to say...". I wanted to expedite the process.

But even so, I must think that NY is better than LA if I like a Wu-Tang music video?

http://www.columbia.edu/~flr9/Dominicans...

This article tells alot. This actually says that in NYC, the largest Dominican population is in Manhattan, followed by the Bronx. Which seems strange since Brooklyn is known for having alot of Dominicans. But I think it's just that the Dominican's in Brooklyn are concentrated to Washington Heights. In Manhattan & the Bx they are probably spread out more. But then again maybe BK's population increased alot since 2000.

"The state of New York was host to
617,901 Dominicans in 2000; followed by New
Jersey, with 136,529; Florida, with 98,410;
Massachusetts, with 69,502; Rhode Island, with
24,588; Pennsylvania (13,667); and Connecticut
(12,830)"

In NJ the DR population is high in Jersey city & Paterson. In Florida, it's Miami. I live in Philadelphia in a mostly puerto rican neighborhood, but in the last few years the dominican population increased alot. I think that number from 2000 is way less than now. Now on every corner there's a dominican owned bodega or barber/beauty shop. So I think it will continue to grow. (not just in Philly, but in all these other areas outside of NYC too)

Just like the previous answer by Bebe, NY has the biggest Dominican population outside the DR....there's also in Miami, but as everybody knows Miami is home to a lot of Cubans. Hope this answers your question a bit!

wasn't saying any region has better religious followers.
should of worded it better, but i was just stating my experiences at that school. not everyone is like that. i've been at the same church since i was bornand i choose to continue to go there because of such a God fearing pastor and congregation.
