Charleston was really nice, and I went there for my honeymoon. Saw a really cool memorial tablet in the old Huguenot Church from a family thanking their great great grand father for planting his family in America. Its funny how the entire town is absolutely unapologetic about kicking off the Civil War, and still have all their memorial statues up, and then you go to see Fort Sumter and the US National Park Service is clearly seething about it and has to try shoehorn in a story time segment about the one time a slavery stole a ship and escaped to the Union blockade.

Parking was horrific though.

This anon speaks the truth. These places are lily white, but they've suffered multiple generations of halo effect, as the best and brightest left for better opportunities elsewhere. I realize now that my dad's family could be described as a "gleaning". A promising bunch that slipped through those cracks and stayed behind. If you live there, you'll realize that you're surrounded by "the rest" in a very bad way. Drugs, theft, and very little economic opportunity. This the thing people don't tell you about moving out to the sticks.

I can see a future where groups of like minded homesteading/homeschooling types flock to these states due to their laws, and form communities in the mountains that functionally displace the current residents. Then they will adopt the same folkways of the mountain people that lived there until very recently, and hopefully this time they shoot anyone trying to buy their minerals.
