South Florida is part of the region, are you kidding??? Anyway you could say Atlanta most definitely, and Miami as a second because it is so far removed from the central part of the region. Dallas is NOT in the SE........
Chicago is probably not the most representative of the Great Lakes states because it is so much larger and more cosmopolitan than the other cities. I think Milwaukee or Cleveland could be more representative.
New England: Boston
Northeast: NYC
Mid-atlantic: Baltimore
Southeast: Atlanta
Mid-west: Chicago
Texas: Dallas
Southwest: Phoenix
Northwest: Seattle
So. Cal: LA
I dunno but i always thought PA/MD/DE/NJ/NY to be the epicenter of the Mid Atlantic States
