من از یکی از دوستان آمریکاییم در مورد چند تا ایالت سوال پرسیدم و یک سری اطلاعات کلی بهم دادن من گفته های ایشون رو براتون نقل قول می کنم .امیدوارم به دردتون بخوره
environment/weather: florida - huge, so different place to place, warm/hot and tropical, beautiful beaches, northern part full of swamp ("everglades") and weather just like the southern states (like Georgia, Alabama)
Iowa- completely flat, LOTS of corn fields, lots of farming and agriculture, pretty dry
north Carolina - lots of forest, weather this far up the coast is starting to escape the stifling humidity of the southern states, four seasons, snow.
Ohio- weather changes ALL the time, but it's humid and rainy a good amount here. very suburban, further up north so cold sometimes
Arizona- 70 percent desert, biggest city (phoenix) is dry and hot as ..., has grand canyon, large mountain up north and mountain community around flagstaff (so way colder up there). Mexican influence in south. Arizona and new Mexico have cool cactus trees too
Illinois - north very urbanized (big cities, modern), southern two thirds a lot like Iowa (small towns, lots of farming, rednecks), north is cold and windy (close to great lakes and Canada), Chicago famous big city with the second biggest food culture in America (after new york), lots of history.
virginia - picture north carolina with a large mountain range very close to the washington d.c., so lots of government jobs, one of the oldest states of America so very cultured and historical
texas - stereotypically warm, but there are four regional parts of texas and they're all different: west texas -wasteland, sparsely populated, more rednecks and stereotypical texas accents, all desert and plains, central -very green, rolling hills, capital, only liberal area. north - Dallas-ft-worth area (big city area), east texas - a lot like louisiana, some swamp, starting to have southern humidity, more accents and cowboy hats like west texas. southern texas - gulf cities (so warm ocean weather) and san antonio, more plains but beside coast it's mostly like central.
california- huge mexican influence throughout (like texas) big divide between northern and southern, northern centers around the "bay area" san francisco, colder, lots of forests, wine country, green, liberals. southern california has the stereotypical california beaches and warm perfect weather (until you hit the desert), hollywood, bro, laidback culture. mountains running through central california, with lots of large mountains and coldness (mostly closer to nevada border) and valleys with tons of agriculture and (mostly animals, pistachios, and famous california cheese).
So basically for california: central- mountains and valleys, south desert, north forest, coasts perfect weather but warmer in south and colder/foggier in north)
Basically: florida and california: temperate, some of the largest and most populated states, expensive housing, great job market. TONS of lakes. California famous for SO many things (wine, film industry, cheese, surfing, apple and microsoft, google, best universities beside new england). California (without the rest of the U.S. is the 8th largest economy in the world. Also has 80% of U.S. the Iranian population, an area in LA "westwood" is nicknamed "tehrangeles" because there are about 800,000 Iranians around there http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tehrangeles. Large amount around San Jose (near San francisco) also. Florida: big surfing, beach and cuban influence everywhere but the north. famous clubs in miami, California and Florida only places disneyland/world are.
iowa and ohio and illinois: different parts of a the kind of midwest area, which is mostly empty. iowa warmer, ohio wetter, illinois windier. iowa barely populated, boring, but great wrestlers. illinois: only part anyone cares about is chicago. ohio, pretty well populated, very "american dream"ish and family like. and wet.
arizona, lots of sites, north= mountains, less people, south = desert, phoenix has a ton of education, big retirement community because it's cheap everywhere but phoenix, people a lot like californians.
virginia and north carolina = very foresty, people not sure if they're the south or the north lol, act like both. Some of the first American colonies were here (along with new england). People are very conservative here somehow without being rednecks. virginia has a lot of blacks, and GREAT education, a lot of southern states send top students to it's universities. north carolina's myrtle beach is famous for spring breaks, the rest of the state most people don't know a lot about.
texas is it's own world. has every type of environment like california, desert, valley, ocean, valley, plains, forest (except for real mountains). people are half southern/half like california, but there is more fast food/ chain restaurants, less exercise, and very...stereotypically american people. tons of whites and tons of mexicans, other races beside these two are rare. ALSO, also texas are VERY proud of their state, and it's the only state that has the right to succeed from America if it votes too (it was it's own country once).
