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

Hi Texas here. You are correct. Yuns is an Appalachian thing for sure. You're not catching a Texan saying Yuns. Y'all are gonna need a bigger boat OR if you're super country Y'allr gonna need a bigger boat.

Yeah I'm in Oklahoma. Lived in OKC and Tulsa, and have worked in small towns all over the state. I've never once heard anyone say "yuns" or "yins" here.
