Same story for our own "White trash".
The stereotype men is wearing "wife beaters" (vests), beer gut, mullet, beer in hand, shotgun in the other, married to the sister, with 10 ratty kids runnin' 'bout, livin' in a dump etc. etc. etc.
But it's just that - stereotype. There is one trailer park around here where I'd swear the stereotype fits to the T - but then again, I can't really differentiate it from the South or the East side of town (famous 'ghetto').
But there's also a trailer park community in Amherst which is quite respectable (hell, it looks better than my block!).
