Probably there shouldn't be a definite line..... where on one side your in south GA and on the other, you're in north GA.
Probably there's a lot of overlap. SOme places on the map where your not really in either.
Also, you have to add in Middle, West, and East Georgia, i think.
I'd draw a big square around Macon and call that Middle GA. The square to the right of that (with some overlap) over to Augusta would be East GA. on the left side, over to COlumbus, that'd be West GA. Then.......the areas of the state north and south of these three overlapping quadrants would be north GA and south GA respectively. In my mind.

My spatial thought process is pretty similar, Jefferson. "North Georgia" (or at least non-South Georgia) stretches further on the West side of the state due to how the fall line impacts topography (think how there are some pretty large hills near Lagrange, but if you go 200 miles nearly due East to Millen, it is significantly flatter).
As a geography nerd I find this stuff interesting as hell.

I identify three "regions" - South Georgia, the Georgia Piedmont, and the North Georgia Mountains. Similar to this map:
I also just refer to anywhere south of the fall line and not on the coast as "Hell."
