I was always under the impression that Florida was the most southern of the northern states. This character is probably due to the fact that all the retirees from the northeast move to south Florida, while northern Floridians tend to be "native born."
And, yes, more "Southern,"

I agree...I used to handle a lot of calls from Florida, and the northern Floridians sounded more hick. ;-) Sorta like Missouri. Everyone in the state (north and south) seems to have some sort of twang--except in St. Louis (where there is a bit of a twang, but not much).
