    I disagree. The east coast is quite plainly the Atlantic coast, including part of the South. If you mean Northeast, just say that.

      You can disagree all you want but you’re just wrong. If people say the East Coast they don’t mean the South. Ever. Every single human being. Even you when you’re not being contrarian cuz you’re bored on the internet like this.

        Well huh… I guess you mgiht be a bit wrong.

        Edit: To further clarify, everyone in the actual region calls the coastal states the east coast. That includes New England and the Southern states that touch the Atlantic Ocean. I say this as someone who has lived in every coastal state except for Maine and Florida. So if you try to use “the east coast” to refer to New England, at least in the region you’re talking about, people are going to think you mean the states on the coast…
