I have seen a lot of complaints about KY being ins Great Lakes Neighborhood, since we have no great lakes lol.

This was more less a decision since I mainly wheel with IN, IL and Oh guys. Plus the two main cities in this state or in the northern portion.

We can move the state out if yall wish or hell rename the neighborhood if yall would rather also.

I will start a Poll and see what yall think.

I threw in a vote for renaming...how about "Heartland" as a name? I often hear this area referred to that way. The company I work for has operations in northern IL and IN that they also refer to as the Heartland region. Also, it has somewhat of a nostalgic feeling to it... What do y'all think?

true. KY is an enigma when it comes to geographical location.

Hence the problem.... I am a true and true SEC fan and what not (football reference) I actually hate the Big-ten but going to Ga, or Al to wheel is not pratical with In and Il right here.

That is the only reason I added Ky to the Great Lakes Region.

Whatever the name, I agree with KY staying with IL, IN & OH. Southeast just covers too much ground and is even more impractical as far as getting together.
