A small town in the Chattanooga region has made a list of the ’10 Most Redneck Cities’ in Tennessee.

Franklin County seat Winchester ranks third on the list compiled by RoadSnacks.net.

The site says it looked for scientific data on a number of redneck stereotypes to create the rankings. The study weighed the number of high school graduates, dive bars, dentists, tobacco and gun stores, and Wal-Marts.

With a population of 8,475, Winchester almost has more fishing and tackle shops per capita than anywhere else in the state, the site said.

Winchester was beat by Rockwood (#2) and Bolivar (#1).
