I hate when people misdiagnose our state like you have.

You got most of it right before you hit Oklahoma.

I come from a part of Oklahoma called Little Dixie. Ever heard of it? Obviously not. It is more like being in the southeast than any of the places you touched on.

I have been to Little Dixie a bunch. It ain't the south. The fact that it is named little Dixie stems from the fact that it was mostly settled by folks displaced shortly after the demise of actual Dixie. There is an area in Utah that is similarly named and it is as southern as the one in Oklahoma. They are much closer to being similar than they are to either being the south.
