Texas is not the South although there are a lot of cultural similarities. Dallas and Houston are huge sprawling metro areas with people from all over the country and all over the world. Houston i/m/o has a truley international aspect to it. In adddition to the Hispanic influence, there are a lot of Asians there and Dallas as well. Austin has more in common with Berkley than it does with any other SEC college town with the exception of maybe Athens. Fort Worth feels very "Western" and after FW, civilization basically ends.
The most "southern" area of our fair land is East Texas. The Pine. Longview/Tyler/Nacagdoches/Lufkin/Texarkana. I don't consider the golden triangle or anything close to Houston a part of East Texas.

Golden triangle has a very strong Louisiana influence.
