> Cons: If you dislike religious cultures you may find it hard to cultivate local friendships. Christianity of several stripes has very deep roots here that are hard to avoid. That said, it's not the Bible belt - the Mennonites, for instance, tend to be more focused on disaster relief than on Bible thumping.
"there is Pittsburg and Philly... and Alabama in between"
Definitely not Southern Baptist bible thumping but yeah, a deeply conservative, in like the 1750's sense, area (i.e Amish, et al). The non-Amish-y types are still pretty deep in the Jesus, too. This is where Rick Santorum comes from, after all.
