∙ 10y agoTechnically the "middle latitudes" are the areas between the tropics and the arctic circles; so, from the Tropic of Cancer (23 degrees 26 minutes north) to the Arctic Circle (66 degrees 34 minutes north) and from the Tropic of Capricorn (23 26 S) to the Antarctic Circle (66 34 S). These are also sometimes called the "temperate zones".
More colloquially, the "mid latitudes" are between 20 and 45 degrees from the equator.
