I think a huge portion of stereotypes actually have some basis of truth and that's why they are established, but one thing that throws stereotypes about regions and people in those regions off, is relocation. Someone from new york that moves to arkansas, or someone from alaska that moves to los angeles isn't instantly going to start acting like a regular of that area. They are going to generally keep their same personality as before and slowly influence their immediate world around them in a unique way. And there is a lot of relocation in the US. ALOT.
