What happens in the Midwest ?
>>
Corn and tornadoes. That's basically it.
>>
>>53692277
Farming, whiteness, and shitty winters.

The big cities are all majority-minority at this point, I'm pretty sure.

The rust belt.

>>53692277
Tornadoes.
>>
>>53692724

Although the two categories overlap, "the rust belt" and "the midwest" are distinct entities. The rust belt is further to the east and is centered on Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania, upstate New York, and all the old industry of there.

Minnesota, Iowa, Dakotas are not "rust belt", but they are decidedly "Midwest".
>>
>>53692277
literally nothing
>>
>>53692277
Mostly wheat and corn. Oil and alcoholic Native Americans in the Dakotas. Niggers in Chicago and Detroit. Big political stuff in Iowa every four years. That's basically it.

Many wonderful things.
You can ask me about it, I've lived here my whole life.

Lots of alcohol consumption, and plaid shorts as well.

>>53702598
The us started on the east and expanded westward, so there's the midwest and then further out is the west
>>
Missouri reporting in!
Hunting, cleaning up lead mines, cleaning up old nuclear pellet facilities, farming, mudding, cities pretending to be coastal cities, emo/skater kids still existing, meth, meth, moonshine stills, hidden weed farms in da woods, and sometimes biker gangs when they are hitting the coast or going to texas.

Michigan is the best outside of the shitty parts you hear about on the news. oh and also aside from the drugs.

Indiana here

the major cities are also disproportionately black

Ohioans getting butthurt about being considered part of the midwest and not their own special snowflake region.

Lived in Minnesota for a long time. Comfy as fuck.

Quieter and more orderly than major US metro areas, cold weather keeps most bums away, economy is good, lots of good natural landscapes (especially in the northern part), people are easy to get along with.

The US industrial core (pic related) has most of its cities as very dilapidated shitholes due to most of them utterly failing to transition to a non-industrial orientated economy. Detroit (Eastern Michigan) is simply the worst case, Pittsburgh (Southwestern Pennsylvania) is the best case, and Chicago (Illinois Coast) is an exception because its focus was finance, and it is a massive (Top 3 in US) city.

Temperature extremes, shitty cities (St. Louis, Chicago, Detroit).

Illinois also has East St. Louis.

As a former Ohioan and Illinoisan, I admit that Michigan is super pretty. The UP was one of the best camping trips I've ever had. I live in Colorado, and I still say Michigan is a contender.

No, that's out in the northwest part of the state, called the bakken formation.

Na man not at all. The only ones I can think of are Detroit and Chicago. All the other cities might come close to 30% minority but most are way less than that. But no not even close to all of the cities are majority minorities in fact its the opposite.

Midwest is 20-30 years behind on most things. A lot of young-ish Wisconsinites in large and medium sized cities still dress like 90s pop preps, like The Backstreet Boys, wear soul patches, and say "wazzzzup". Not joking at all.

Yeah, Def Leppard played here a few months ago, it's much more common for big artists to go to Bismarck or Fargo, which are the 2nd and 1st biggest cities respectively.

>>53703341
ohio is like the border between regions. cleveland/akron feels northeast, cincy is redneck like kentucky, and the western part of the states is 100% midwest. overall i'd say it's midwest

Which is better between North and South Dakota.

>>53708746
nature is western south dakota hands down
largest city is eastern south dakota with sioux falls. it's not the best city but it's not yet as bad as places like minneapolis. note it's only ~170k. don't come here for large cities
we're pretty similar weather wise. nd tends to get a bit colder but it's not that different honestly
pre oil boom north would have won crime easily, but the oil broom has brought shitty people up there. crime is low in both states though as long as you avoid oil boom cities and poor native reservations

Scene kids still exist though

But not the Somalis.

>>53704346
It has leftover cultural relics from when it was more important. 3 major sports teams, a symphonic orchestra, an excellent art museum, a great zoo, a big theatre district.
The only problem is that the inner neighborhoods all became black and ghetto so white people all live in suburbs and not the city itself. There's like one dense neighborhood the gays gentrified but other than that you cannot have an urban lifestyle without being surrounded by hood trash. It's very car-oriented because of this.
As a living-in-the-suburbs city I'd rate it 7/10 and as a living-in-the-city city I'd rate it 3/10

As a young adult I much prefer nearby Columbus because you can actually live in the city there
>>
>>53707969
Milwaukee is around 63% minority-majority
Cleveland 65% minority
St. Louis 55% minority
Cincy 50% minority

Minneapolis and KC are majority white

All other cities are too small to be considered major

I hear they eat mayo by the spoon full and drink microwaved butter.

Aren't there a lot of Somalis in Columbus?

>Nature
SD definitely has much better topography, ND is as flat as a pancake, unless you like some riverx.
>Largest City
Fargo's the largest city here of 100k, I live an hour north, so I'm not too sure about it. but the cities are nice, I live in Grand Forks, with 60k people in it and it's enjoyable.
>Weather
Summer months are pretty hot, averages about 80F(27C) during June-July, but as>>53707727 posted. If you can't handle the cold, don't move here.
>Crime
There's not a lot of people or minorities, so crime is low. I'm not too sure about the conditions out west though with the oil boom
