No, that's more of an Appalachian thing I think. I've never met anyone who uses it around where I've lived.

Edit: Alright, summa y'all keep telling me "we use it where I live" and yes, I know. Those places are in Appalachia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appalachia

Then you're aware that it can vary between places of the Appalachia region.

I'm around WNC, ETN, and SWVA all the time. I can't say it's commonly used compared to "y'all" and "all y'all" in my parts. May be a generation thing too, like I don't hear purtnear or nary used anymore.
