South of Cape Girardeau and especially the boot heel I have no issues with them saying that.

Mason Dixon line cuts Missouri in half after all.


To put this in perspective:

Caruthersville, MO (the southeastern most town in the state) is just 178 miles to Oxford, MS and just 196 miles to Nashville.

But Caruthersville to Kansas City is 429 miles, nearly triple the distance to Oxford.

So when y'all say "Missouri is not a cultural fit", it's a confusing sentiment because Missouri is not a cultural fit within itself.

Missourians south of Cape Girardeau are most definitely Southern. Missouri’s southern border is only like 60 miles from Mississippi’s northern border. Pretty sure you don’t go from “Mississippi” to “Yankee” in 60 miles.

As Breakaway posted, SE Missouri is easier to get to from Oxford, MS than Kansas City. Missouri is a huge state especially from NW to SE
