The many spring-fed streams and rivers of the Ozark mountains are crystal clear.
It's to be noted that in Arkansas and far southern Missouri the Ozarks are undisputedly Southern.

My top 5 are...

1) Missouri

2) Minnesota

3) Wisconsin

4) Michigan

5) Ohio


Also, as much as I love Chicago- the rest of Illinois is rather drab so I don't consider the state as a whole in my favorite Midwestern states!

The state I currently reside - Missouri.

Take a drive outside Kansas City and St. Louis areas and you'll see what I mean. Lakes, woods, farmland, and rolling hills. Mixture of southern and midwestern cultures is what make this state unique in the region.

I've always liked Missouri.
Yeah I like Missouri as well, (and this is coming from a Nebraska family) both of those cities are great.

As a non mid-westerner, I really liked Wisconsin myself.

Michigan without a doubt. The western lakeshore is what I'm most familiar with, and it's awesome. I'd love to live around Holland.
