I’m willing to advocate for Burlington to be an honorable Midwest city. It’s on a controversial great lake, has lots of redneck attire, and the folks aren’t as friendly as they claim. What’s holding them back is the naval history, too much war during early American history to get that ‘new territory’ moniker.
Calling any part of New York part of New England is sure to piss people off too.
