    How many people do you know from the great plains states?

    I have family from Kansas and Colorado, who worked the wheat harvests going from north Texas through to the Dakotas and eastern Montana. Eastern Colorado and western Kansas are not very different at all. I don’t see why you would want to say a cultural definition is incorrect when it’s people’s self identity.

      “How many people do you know from the great plains states?”

      All of them. It’s where I live. It’s where I have lived the majority of my life. But I’m also well traveled and can assure you, there are cultural differences between the regions you are conflating.

      Once again, you are wrong. Thank you.

        Where do you live? Because my family considers themselves midwestern. I’m sorry you feel that way about it.
