I also lived in KY about an hour away from L'ville. As a Bostonian via college years in Pittsburgh, I did feel as if Louisville was very Southern. Even in the city, the locals walked slow, drove slow, and spoke slow. Despite all that, I grew to love the area. I have a couple of Kappa alums with whom I keep in touch. Several of heir kids went to Manual DuPont HS which is a magnet HS of Jefferson County PS. Kentucky Country Day and Louisville Collegiate were popular choices when I was there during our Ft Knox stint.
I did encounter a bit of anti-Catholicism when I lived there.
