Are the latitudes north of the Arctic Circle and south of the Antarctic Circle called high middle or low latitude regions?

"High" latitudes. The equator has a latitude of zero. The area between the Tropic of Cancer (at 23.5 degrees north) and the Tropic of Capricorn (at 23.5 degrees south) are the "tropics" or low latitudes. The "polar regions" are above the Arctic Circle or below the Antarctic Circle, where the latitudes are higher than 66.5 degrees (north or south) are "high". The areas between the tropics and the arctic/antarctic are called "mid-latitudes or "temperate zones".

Technically 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.
