Contrary to popular belief, hillbillys and rednecks are NOT the same thing.

Hillbillys:
Live in the mountains. (hence the name) appalaichians or the ozarks.
Are from the South
Are most of the time educated, they just enjoy the simpler things in life, and dont like to live near a ton of people.
Mostly, very family and friend oriented people.

Rednecks:
In my experience, mostly come from texas.. basically the regions in the south that dont have mountains.
Are also educated mostly, they also dont like to live with alot of people around, but they are usually a little less civiliazed then hillbillys.
Can get very roudy.. (loud, kinda crazy) but all in all, both are very good people,
and both have traditional Southern values.
kid-Where's your dad?
me-My daddy lives in texas.
kid-So he's a hillbilly?
me-no, he doesnt live in the mountains, he's more of a redneck.

Southern Hospitality is a family, or individual helping another, just because its the right thing to do. People call it Southern Hospitality because people from the South are known to be nice folks. If someone comes knocking on the door needing food, or a place to stay for the night, most people down here will gladly help.
random person knocking on the door- Hello Ma'am, im in terrible need of some food, do you think you've got a little to spare?
Woman-Yes sir, just come on in and ill fix you up a plate!
random person-Thank you for your Southern Hospitality ma'am
