Yes.

Dry areas are becoming less and less common as communities find
that their need for revenue outweighs their disdain for alcohol.

It varies by state, but most if not all states allow you bring in
a small amount for "personal consumption."

I was in the outer banks NC & a couple of counties were dry - but you could get a beer with a meal

Oh..well..thanks for sharing..so we must not visit these places as there is no alcohol..I would share this to my friends as well..

Yes, there are areas. I also noticed, when I was in Utah, that it's all terrible beer (so I perfer to do without) and you need to give everything but a sperm sample to get it. Just weird.

I think that Lynchburg, where Jack Daniels is made is still dry.
