That's the official US Census Bureau definition of "The South", drawn along the traditional the Mason-Dixon line. (In Delaware, we used to say we were neither north nor south of the Mason-Dixon line, but
east of it. Technically true, but it figuratively ran right across the state, at roughly the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal. Maryland had segregated hotels, restaurants, and restrooms into the 1960s...)
