Farming is HUGE and Southern accents a plenty. Also strong GOP territory. The Pine Barrens of Southern NJ are the same way without the Southern accents.

Kent and Sussex seem to act more like the Upper South than the Mid Atlantic. Title: Re:Delaware --- Region?

That's close to what I've said before I agree as well. In my visits there is a significant transition from Wilmington to Dover. I'd consider the shore area to be a mix of Dixie and NJ coast in style and attitude. Title: Re:Delaware --- Region?
