TN is Williamson County. Which is basically the Nashville suburbs and/or bougie town.

Also, not a whole lot of actual locals living there, ask me how I know.

I mean, for NC it’s the Durham/Raleigh suburbs plus Duke University, so plenty of out of staters (seriously, just go to Duke gardens on a weekend, it’s pretty amazing how many languages are spoken). Which would probably explain a lot of it.

Could be. Hard to tell when it’s that small. Still doubtful.
