The term "Midwest" originated in the early 19th century when it referred to the region that was considered the central part of the United States. At that time, the country was still expanding westward, and the Midwest was seen as the middle ground between the eastern states and the western frontier. Over time, as the nation developed, the name persisted even though the geographic understanding shifted, making it seem more eastern relative to the current layout of the country. Thus, the term reflects historical context rather than precise geographic location.
It depends where you are. the eastern Midwest tends to be more lush, while the west Midwest is dry and not so good for farming.

It has to do with the definition of "Midwest." Only few "Midwestern" states, such as Minnesota and Iowa, are west of the Mississippi, i.e., in the eastern half of the US. States west of Minnesota and Iowa are considered to be in the Great Plains.
