Answer 1

The statement that does not describe life in the backcountry of the Southern Colonies is: "Family farms were clustered near one another for mutual support."

In the backcountry, families often lived in more isolated conditions rather than clustered together, as the land was more sparsely populated and settlements were not as developed as in other areas.
