I live on the border of Missouri and Kansas. While most of Missouri is Midwestern, the southern part is definitely southern. And while Kansas is Midwestern the western part of the state is well western. So what state to you is the most Midwestern?

    It’s the Great Plains for sure. I think when your end the Great Plains, you think of the Great Plains as the Midwest and the Rust belt as the rust belt instead of the rust belt

    To be honest the plains folk hold up the friendly midwestern stereotype a lot better than the rust belt does

      Having lived in both places, I don’t think the midwest-nice stereotype holds up for either unless it is use as a pejorative.
