Rural New Yorkers from any point in the state west of the Adirondacks and Catskills ("Midwest" NY residents, as opposed to NYC residents, Long Island residents, Westchester County residents, and Upstaters)).
Generally referred to by urban New Yorkers as "upstaters", and by southerners as "yankees". Neither of these groups actually has a clue as to who or what ANYBODY is, if they live over 150 miles away from themselves, since they have never been, nor will they ever even attempt to go that far from their own familiar territory because it would be too much like getting out of their comfort zones.

Leon, a Redneck from Chumuckla, told Bubba not to talk 'bout his mamma like that lest he have to rip off his neck and shit down the hole.

Get the Redneck mug.
If your from The Northestern United States where life is highly competitive then a Red Neck is a Patriotic Prig who is also a Racist. He is the enemy with whom all Minorities must contend. And Yankees don't fratinize with the enemy because they take life entirely too seriously.
If you're from The Southeastern United States where Life is generally laid back then a RedNeck is a country hillbilly who minorities feel uncomfortable being around but will work with if they must. It's just too much trouble to keep up with your enemy.

For many Yankees Jeff Foxsworthy is no more a typical Redneck than Richard Pryor was the typical Negroe even when he described himself with the 'N' word. Both are to be regarded only as comedic relief. A true RedNeck was, at one time, George C. Wallace. REMEMBER how the IVY league students greeted him back in the 1960's!
To many Southerners Jeff Foxworthy and the Dukes of Hazard County ARE true RedNecks. All other Conservative Whites is just plain folk.

Get the Redneck mug.The act of playing home run derby with a toad or frog with a skinny stick (not a baseball bat too easy). Usually pitched by someone else using a shovel.
" Redneck baseball was so fun last night I hit 4 homers."
