Jacksonville is hardly a haven for Yankees. Other Southern cities like Memphis, Nashville, and Jackson, Mississippi, are not havens for transplants, yet they are ranked in the top 20. My guess is that there is a high correlation between the level of anger and the size of the African-American population. The bottom 10 cities (Colorado Springs, Colo., El Paso, Texas, Sioux Falls, S.D., Des Moines, Iowa, Burlington, Vt., Portland, Or., Corpus Christi, Texas, Fargo, N.D., Bangor, Maine, and Manchester, N.H.) are predominantly white or Hispanic, with minimal black populations.

I'll have to disagree. It has nothing to do with race, and more to do with southern culture, i.e. a propensity to love fried foods . I take you back to one of the main criteria: high blood pressure.

NOBODY does a good fish fry like we do here in TN.
