I like in Montgomery county, Virginia, home of Virginia Tech. It's very much a swing county, voting for Hillary in 2016 by a few hundred votes.
A bit less than half of the permanent population of the county lives in the college town of Blacksburg, and this area is very liberal, though not as overwhelmingly liberal as many northern college towns.
Five miles in any direction from Blacksburg is all Trump signs and giant crosses. Though Virginia as a whole has definitely trended blue, the SW quadrant of the state has trended deep red.
