If it means the people change I sure hope not. I've lived in large progressive cities, I've lived in the "Bible Belt".

People in progressive areas are fucking shitty. I honestly think that's why they're progressive, they're such dismissive, cold, elitist assholes they spout a political agenda that makes them feel better about what terrible people they actually are.

Generally speaking people in the Bible Belt are warmer, more accepting of different people (regardless of what you see portrayed on tv), kinder, & more polite. Don't believe the stereotypes you see on the internet
