What is the Alabama of your country?

Hi everybody, my girlfriend showed me a Tiktok about manga authors adding unnecessary incest plotlines to their works and I thought immediately "They are from Monterrey" (we are from Mexico).

I remembered that the States have a similar joke about Alabama and I started wondering if other countries also have a state or city associated with people who are, for some unknown reason, attrated to their cousins.

Here in Mexico there even is a kind of saying for these people «A la prima se le arrima».

Mmmm IDK... Have you ever visit the province? Gatineau is 300k+ souls, Sherbrooke, Trois-Rivieres, Chicoutimi are now all over 100k, with about a half-dozen more cities with 70k+ population. Not exactly only field and forests. Kentucky as like 2 cities with more then 100k. It's actually quite a populated province, 2nd in Canada.

I'm a 20 minute drive from you kweebs. You guys have some serious rednecks,. and even worse, they speak this God awful fucking old world French that's pronounced wrong.
