Tell me about your town

[Not Afraid]

There are certainly generalities attributed to N. Ca and S. Ca but it seems to depend on how close you are to the coast. The Northern coastal part of the state is generally considered more liberal than the Southern part (where coastal access doesn't seem to matter too much in political leanings). The South is a LOT more populous than the North with more development, more people, more freeways, more housing tracts, more strip malls, etc. Not too far north of San Francisco you hit pretty rural areas fairly quickly. The entire northern part of the state is relatively empty (compared to the populous south). Inland, Central California can get pretty redneck in places and downright conservative - at least the rural places my siblings have lived.
