Sayings and their geographic areas

[Saxywoo]

I've grown up mostly in the Midwestern US, and I've heard that, both from my grandparents and mother, who are country folk.

But I, on the other hand, refuse to live in an area where the greater metropolitan area has a population less than 1,000,000. And I've heard it said in downtown Chicago as well.

But my parents have long-time friends from Toronto, so I don't know when they may have picked that up.
