That's why I like where I live so much. We don't have the level of intolerance and prejudice often associated with Southerners (though not to say that we're the
most progressive place one could live), but the people around here are still warm and friendly like Southerners often are.
I know the names of every single person who lives on my block, and we look out for one another (checking on elderly neighbors if we haven't seen or heard from them for a couple of days, picking up a neighbor's mail and newspaper for them while they're away, and so on).
I like it that way.
