I lived in Will and Grundy co for 46 years. Moved to Franklin co a few years ago. Everyone down here just assumes you are from cook co and share their views if you say you lived up North when that is far from reality. People down here are ok, my wife is from here so they accept me for the most part. There are some upsides like lower taxes, less government regulation and we have land. But in my time here people are generally more friendly up North.
