People in the rural north are friendly folks too. Its a different kind of nice but good folks just the same.

You do not have to go to the deep south for that, Texan's are the same way.

I am also a refugee from L.A. I have found that great Southern attitude here in Dallas.

That's just the way we are... right up until you piss us off. Then all hell's out for breakfast. ;)
Have a great time down here where civilized people live.

I've visited the South...short visits...a number of times.I also went through BCT (at Fort Knox) with guys who were mainly from TN,MS and TX.Southerners certainly do seem more polite and respectful.I can only assume that it's their upbringing...their culture.

Funny, I have a merchant here in Texas like that, but he is from California ☺

I live in Huntsville. For a lot of people who have never been to the deep South, it is a shock.
And then many of them move here.
Welcome to Huntsville.
BTW, if you want to go to church somewhere Sunday, we would be honored to have you at the Jordan Park Church of Christ.

The above link will give you plenty of info on how to find us.

I have lived here since 1966 and the people here are about the nicest anywhere. Guess it is in the water! I have discovered that if I am nice to others, they are nice in return. Love HSV.

My husband and I, both Texans, were at the car rental counter at a California Airport. The young black woman behind the counter asked my husband for his drivers license number.
He verbally gave the number, a typical trust issue in Texas.
In the way of young black women, head and chin back, shoulders, doing a slight zig-zag, she says “To-To, you ain’t in Kansas anymore, I’ll need to SEE that license”
We got a kick out of that reaction.
The moral? We are as surprised at cynicism as you are at openness.

No argument...but for a reasonably large city, I have found the people of Indianapolis the nicest, friendliest folks around.
