How is Texas supposed to sit in this?



I would say Garreau was right on in his divisions of Texas. I've spent a lot of time in the state, which is HUGE. East Texas is much more like the South than it is Dallas or El Paso. You'd might as well be in different countries. In fact El Paso is closer to Los Angeles than it is Houston. The accents are different, too. Walk across the bridge joining Marshall, TX and Shreveport, LA. The only difference you'll find is which side of the river they're on. Dallas is another place entirely. Anycity, USA with a twang.

I could live in East Texas, Austin or even Houston. You can have the rest of the place.
