Based on the people I know who are from the midwest, they have a very different mentality towards life. They're much slower (not in terms of intelligence, I just mean SLOWER. People from NY and NJ are always in a rush.) We are also very diverse, and I get the impression that the midwest is pretty white bread. Minus the cities, of course. NJ is a mini US- we have every culture, religion, sexual orientation, etc, known to man in a very small space. It seems that the midwest is mostly White Christians. My friend from Illinois, who lived in a suburb of Chicago (which she said was more diverse than most of the midwest) was in culture shock when she moved to Jersey. She said everything was different.
Plus, we are very overcrowded, have short tempers, and we KNOW our Italian food. fuhgettaboutit!

I just wanted to see if it was possible to answer this question without offending me. As I suspected, it's not.
