Another universal saying (everyone thinks it's original who lives there).
I've heard of Oregon, parts of California, Western Massachusetts,
and Long Island, New York refered to as "God's Country" by the natives
in those various places.

there is a saying in colorado:
"if you don't like the weather, just wait a minute"

I think this is a universal characterization. Every place I've lived
in the United States I have heard exactly this expression, always with
the same lead-in "We've got a saying in {New England, Downstate
Illinois, ...}"
NO, this is NOT a survey. Don't tell me you've heard the same thing.
It's just a curiosity. I'm sure there are a bunch of these universal
perceptions; I wonder if something like DARE deals with this.
