Iowa, Minnesota, Michigan, and Wisconsin.

North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, and Kansas are NOT North Central states because they are too far west or south, and they are Great Plains states geographically, along with Oklahoma, northern Texas, western Iowa, western Missouri, and eastern Colorado.

Missouri is right in the middle of the United States (by geography and by population) and it is NOT a North Central state. Missouri is also a genuine Mississippi Valley state, along with Illinois, Arkansas, Tennessee, Mississippi, and Louisiana. The real Mississippi Valley begins when the Missouri River flows into the upper Mississippi River. The Ohio River also flows into the Mississippi River in Missouri, right at its border with Kentucky.

Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio are too far south to be North Central States, and they are Ohio Valley states, along with Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Kentucky.

Did you know that part of Illinois is farther south than Kentucky or Virginia?

Pennsylvania and Ohio are also Northeastern states.

There is much confusion in the press and on TV about the Border States. The Border States do not have anything to do with Mexico or Canada, but rather they are along the border between the North and the South. These are the Border States, and they always have been: Delaware, Maryland, West Virginia, Kentucky, and Missouri. It is astonishing when writers do no know enough history to know this.
