This is correct. I don't have animosity toward Michigan and don't regard it as part of the Midwest. I have a generally positive view of the Wisconsin/Minnesota/Michigan region. Especially Wisconsin because of their amazing cheese. To me the Midwest is Iowa, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, and Kentucky. (Though Iowa blends with the Great North states and Kentucky blends with the South.) But especially the trio of Illinois, Indiana and Ohio - they're the heart of the Midwest and really what I'm most talking about as "Midwest culture."
