Not sure Mobile, AL would go along with this though; A wonderful place unfortunately surrounded by dearth.

minus-squareWhyIHateTheInternet@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 days agoI live in California and I’ve heard the words “Eastern California” in this thread more times than I’ve ever heard it in my life. We’re only about 3-4 hours wide I say North and South are fine. Maybe two North’s for the reason you said.
