Yooper

A person originating from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. It is home to the only counties in the United States with a Finnish descent majority.

Yoopers can be really nice and friendly, depending on where you go in the UP. The more remote you get, however, the less friendly they will be. This is likely due to the fact that the more remote you get, the nicer the area is, and the more stringent people will be about keeping it that way.

Many of them don’t take kind to tourists for the above reasons. But just keep your trash in your pocket until you find a trash can, and nobody will sneer at you.

Many Yoopers take from Canada and their usage of the word “eh.” Yoopers also age like fine wine, but keep younger voices as they do so. There are 60-year-old Yoopers that sound similar to a 30-year-old.

They often rap on “trolls,” or people who are from downstate, the Lower Peninsula. The downstaters are called trolls because they live “below the Mackinac Bridge.”

Yoopers aren’t bothered by snow at all, and will continue with their daily lives as normal, even if they find six feet of snow dumped overnight in their yard, and often laugh at people who can’t do well in a foot of snow.
