Denver and Wyoming are in the Mountain West, not the Great Plains. Why is southern Ohio shaded as being part of the South? It is not. Also, why is Reno part of the West Coast and not the Mountain West? Vegas and Reno don't strike me as being in different cultural zones.

Eastern CO and Eastern WY are in the Great Plains, Denver is on the edge. And I shaded OH in the South by accident, and I also accidently put Reno in the West Coast. Sorry about that.

Looks decent. I'd almost put the whole "horn" (or whatever the hell it's called) of Texas in the southwest...or Mexico, for that matter.

I would just name it Florida. Not caribbean Florida

The west coast has a distinct culture from seattle to san diego, then I would put southern CA as a sub culture of the west coast culture.

I agree 110%

Now watch someone come in here and try to argue Maryland, D.C., Northern VA, and Delaware have southern culture

I can't speak for the whole map, but I think the Northeast on it is just about perfect.

Parts of NY and PA should not be in the midwest. They are nothing like the midwest.

I was gonna say that lol, but just left it alone cause the mapmaker covered Delaware, Maryland, and NOVA which alotta people like to pretend aren't connected to the North. But anyway, that's why I said it's just about perfect.

I could see maybe a small argument for a small bit of western PA, but none of NY should be considered Midwest.
