how can iowa be part of the core, but not wisconsin or michigan??
the core midwest are the great lakes states: wisconsin, michigan, illinois, minnesota. i’ll typically put indiana in there too
then, there’s the peripheral midwest, which i typically consider part of the midwest: iowa, ohio, nd, sd
finally, there’s the not-really-midwest: nebraska, western PA
Iowa is the paradigm midwest state, how the fuck can it be peripheral??
that’s fair - i’d be comfortable moving iowa into the core. i left it on the periphery because western iowa is very much great plains-esque
regardless, if iowa is in the core, then so is wisconsin and michigan
