How do you define the Midwest?

For Arkansas, I have only been to that state three times. I entered from Missouri on I-55 and thought that area around there felt Midwestern to me, once I got to the outskirts of Memphis and onto Little Rock I started feeling like I was in the South. I think of it as being in the South but not the Deep South like I already said in a previous post but the NE corner feels Midwestern. And as far as Missouri goes that's Midwestern for sure. The part out by Springfield and Joplin feels more like a combination of Oklahoma, Missouri itself and Kansas.

Sure, but then get down by Thayer/West Plains and Missouri is more like West Virginia.
