From traveling through Missou alot, it seems their % is probably similar to Kansas. Though Southern and Eastern Missou may skew that a bit in favor or Mizzou.

In the same boat as you are Predarat, moved from KC to Nashville. What you're describing is the difference between redneck and hillbillies. My neighbors are some of the best people you could meet but they are, by their own admission, hillbillies. Hillbillies are good ole down home folks like you say.
