Again, I wouldn't see any reason to correlate it with education level or rural people. The map really only shows that it's a southern thing.
Sure the south could have more rural white without a college education, but it also has more fresh peaches and warmer weather. You can't connect all of those things.

California also has fresh peaches and warm weather.
Montana also has a lot of ‘eighs’
I’m sticking to my hypothesis
