Sorry if I wasn’t clear. I totally agree there are left leaning blue collar communities.

And that’s my whole thing. It’s possible to enjoy aspects of the south or non city life but not be the stereotype of those (generally) more conservative leaning areas.

I guess generally “DC type jobs” aren’t as common in more rural areas so just wanted to hear experiences of people who work in DC but don’t belong to families that have a history of that type of work. (Aka non nepotism or having a family history of this kinda work)

And I’m not just saying blue collar communities. I just mean like “regular America.” I hate saying it like that and it’s not a good phrase since it’s not really accurate but I can’t think of another way to explain it
