Lol well sorry if I was confusing, the "per capita" comes from the economics major in me. Anyways, as I said this all comes from my own observations. I attended school in Connecticut, and several students from far outside the area (Ohio, Georgia, Alabama, Kansas) commented that they perceived the Northeast to be far more materialistic than where they came from. Additionally, since graduation many local friends have scattered throughout the country and say that are much happier living around more down-to-earth people. I myself expect to soon relocate down South, and greatly look forward to being a place where you don't need a shiny rolex watch or hummer to be happy.
