Oregon is one of the most materialistic cultures and consumerist places and in America. Vermont and Wisconsin seem legit.
I dunno about either VT or WI. VT, what I've seen of it anyway, is sort of "shabby chic". You know, you brag about not being materialistic. I've spent a lot of time in WI, my mom was from there. Most people in WI live in the southern part of the state, Milwaukee/suburbs, etc. They drive cars, buy houses, and whatnot like everyone else. The northern part of the state is more rural, but still most people have fairly late-model cars. Lots have hunting cabins and the like, and lots of expensive hunting equipment.

Well, there are hunting cabins, and then there are cottages....that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. Please don't assume WI isn't materialistic...I've lived there before, and am living there, now. Plenty of materialism. Lots of new cars around these parts, as well.

Ohio is pretty blue collar state overall but they have plenty of white collar and materialistic professionals in Cleveland, Cincinnati and Cleveland. Def not the least materialistic place in the Midwest that would be Iowa or Nebraska. If I had to give an answer it would be New England thou like Maine and Vermont.

I don't think half of you know what materialistic means, honestly. Wealth =/= materialism.
