| Too subjective and open to regional interpretation. Being from Michigan, I consider the "midwest" to be Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Minnesota. Kansas and that swathe of states from OK to ND to me are "Great Plains" states. But people in Kansas probably say they are the "midwest" and that we are "Great Lakes" states. To me south of the Potomac and Ohio rivers plus LA, AR and MO is the simply the "south"; TX, NM and AZ are "southwest", California is "west", OR & WA are "northwest", ID, CO, MT are "Rocky Mountain", NV & UT are "Great Basin", East of NY is New England, and PA, NY, NJ, MD and DE are "Mid-Atlantic". In fewer words--A very SUBJECTIVE can-of-worms and not an OBJECTIVE matter. |
