A term generally used to discribe parts of Florida, most notabley coastal urban centers and Orlando. A large percentage of these areas' residents originate from northern regions, such New York, New England, and parts of southern Canada. As a result, they are almost entirely devoid of things typically associated with the deep south (southern accents, Confederate pride, etc.). Called "South of the South" for it's location south of the Deep South (or Dirty South). Note that in means being physically south of the region called the south, NOT the southern part of the region called the south. Urban Dictionary

Contrary to the opinion of many northerners, the south is not a place filled with rednecks drinking whiskey, playing banjos, sleeping with our cousins, and beating on black people. In fact, we are actually pretty tolerant, as a whole, of other races and religions (i would like to point out that the biggest riots when they integrated schools were in boston.) We also have a very unique culture including music and literature. A lot of great writers and musicians were from the south, such as B.B. King, William Faulkner, Eudora Welty, and Anne Rice. We also contribute to movies as well, since many great actors such as Morgan Freeman and James Earl Jones hail from here. So biased northerners should get a clue, or maybe read Gone with the Wind, the most beloved work by an American author. It's by a dirty racist southerner, I hear. Urban Dictionary

Basically just states in the south of the united states of america. the south is generally a very nice place to live in, with warm weather and friendly folk; the main reasons so many northerners are moving down to the south. What most southerners don't know is that the 'damn yankees' don't make fun of the South much at all, in fact we never really -mention- the south. We don't bring up the Civil War and taunt the South or anything. Some southerners have this idea that all yankee's think that the south is full of hicks, but this is not true. Yankee's like southerners, so you southerners should learn to be tolernat of yankee's and their culture to. we're all one country, after all. Urban Dictionary

HELL Urban Dictionary

With regard to the other definition ... If you're a yankee don't move here, we hate all y'all too! Urban Dictionary

In short, The South is a distinct region of the United States which consists of the same states that seceeded from the union in the pre-civil war era. If you don't know them by now, then you'll never know them. The South is growing at a more than moderate rate and is a lot more diversified than it used to be. The South is the epitomy of amiability but also maintains a great sense of pride. If someone outside of The South "disses" it, a severe ass-whippin can occur. Urban Dictionary
