Do you agree with the map or would you change anything?

I'd put the rest of what was in the Cherokee Strip into "Kansas" culture...
Simply because it was northern wheat farmers and foreign people who came to Oklahoma to grow wheat that settled that area. It isn't west Texas culture in a place like Alva or Enid, or Fairview, or Kingfisher. Not even close.
Panhandle is interesting because historically it was a mixed bag of Texans and people from Kansas and Nebraska.
As far as western Oklahoma proper... I suppose you could call it "west Texas" culture... but for some reason... a lot of Missourians settled the old Cheyenne Arapaho lands.

Wrong.. I live in southern Oklahoma and we are nothing like Tx. The Red River makes a difference.

Correct, because those counties grew cotton and had a large number of people moving from Southern states during and after the Civil War.

I don’t agree with the Midwest part at all. Might just be purple without the “Midwest”

South/SE OK is definitely a world of its own.

Not really. Just country folks with a penchant for kicking UT hiney (Yeah, the other UT too).

I'd put Choctaw County in with southern/southeast culture.
(The county just west of McCurtain.)

You're right, of course. That's definitely where it belongs. Funny, I didn't notice that the first time I perused this thread.
