Chestnut Ridge is not in the American Southwest
It gets cold and snows. So where is this supposed to be, more like the plains? Colorado?

It doesn't feel very Southwestern though.
If it was - it would be a tribrid between 'Anglo-Cowboy culture', Native American culture, and Mexican culture - with the Indigenous and Mexican aspects being heavily intertwined. It's only got the first two. So it actually does feel more like it's in the Southeast - Oklahoma. Or the midwest on the Great Plains.
When I lived in the Southwest, everybody on the Rez spoke Spanish, and everybody in the Mexican part of town (which was most of town outside of a city) spoke Navajo. ;)
I've got family in Oklahoma though - that has ended up marrying back in with Cherokee, and they way they describe things fits more with what I see in Chestnut Ridge.
The architecture of the build mode items is NOT very Southwest, nor are the CAS items. But they all do seem to fit either Great Plains (midwest) or Oklahoma (southeast).
To those of you who are in Europe and wondering "what's the difference?" - just replace "Mexico / Southwest" with Ireland / Northern Ireland, "Great Plains" with "Scottish", and "Southeast with "Welsh", and then roll your eyes when an American asks "what's the difference?" :wink:
