Is Kentucky the south or the midwest?

You mean such midwestern sensibilities as being hard working and enterprising?

I'm going to assume that you are asking this in sincerity and answer you respectfully.

In the sense that all of the United States has this characteristic, then yes. In the particularly Midwestern sense of it, no. If you have ever gone to an actual Midwestern locale and lived there as a Kentucky transplant, you quickly learn the difference; however, it is difficult to quantify in a few short words.

Well I'd thought better of my flippant remark and was gonna delete it, now I reckon I'm stuck. I offer my apologies.
