Without looking at a map, what region of the US do you think Kentucky is?

Chef! Don't put your dick in that... – Kentucky/Tennessee
Damnit. Was thinking of that as well, but in my head he was the other way around so I thought Kentucky would be in the middle instead of the east.

South of Ohio and north of Tennessee? I think. I lived in Louisville for 5 months, which was fairly strange. A high school girlfriend moved from New England to hickledicklefuck eastern Kentucky and somehow got a southern accent and became a fascist Christian in about 6 months. The church she was in, though, split off from the main one in town over a dispute about speaking in tongues and snake handling.

I don't believe you but upvoted for the chuckle
- I do - I’ve both seen & heard some shit first & second hand. I’m guessing she fell into some extremist Pentecostal groups as they both speak in tongue & handle snakes.
  
  Also areas full of Christian’s like that can really wrap the minds of people you’d think would know better. To this day I’m still bothered by how my area ruined the lives of 2 artists that I was convinced were going to go on to do great things. I fully blame the area they grew up in, so much talent squandered - literally any where else their talents would have got noticed & no telling how much better their lives would have been.
- Unfortunately, this is completely true.

Great question. A lot of government agencies consider Kentucky as part of the southeast, but I would say that culturally Kentucky falls squarely into Appalachia, along with West Virginia, Tennessee, western NC, southwestern Virginia, and southern Ohio. I would also say that Kentucky has a pretty wide metro/rural split, with Lexington and Berea being very different places.

This is basically how I think of it. I know states aren't one thing, all the way through, but I categorize Kentucky with TN, NC, and WV. There are parts of OH that are basically KY, and NC gets much different further east, but generally, it makes sense. Definitely not midwest. Clearly not Southeast, despite UK being in the SEC.
- It could be worse. At least UK is kinda in the Southeastern direction. The Big 10 has 16 schools now...

Appalachia really is its own region and that should be more widely acknowledged. Kentucky is in Appalachia.

The middle-east, where all the religious fanatics come from, a theocratic state.

Midwesterners will say it's the South, Southerners will say it's the Midwest. Like a geographical game of hot potato.

North West South East

Middle east southish is actually a pretty good description
Pretty close. It’s about in the middle, but to the east of the center of the country. Culturally though it is part of “the south”.
- I was with you until the last sentence.
- Not even, they fought for the Union!

Somewhere to the right.

I'm in California tho. Everything except Alaska and Hawaii is to the right.

Middle East

Before playing Statele, I would have told you it was in the deep south, and on the Atlantic coast. . I'm continuously surprised both by how far north it is, and how not Tennessee it is.

Bible Belt, yeah? Definitely not Midwest or South.

The region of fried chicken.

Upper South.

South East.

It's somewhere where they grow a lot of chicken.

Southern Appalachia

Smack dab in the middle of the perineum.

I mixed up Kentucky and Kansas

You monster!

Southeast.

Western kentucky is Appalachia, Eastern is east coast

Kentucky is the North South.

As far as I know: It's ~~considered midwest even though it's not geographically in the middle or the west.~~ Appalachian

Technically the Midwest is called that because it was formed from the Midwest Territory in the early 1800's. Also, Kentucky isn't midwest because it was never part of the Midwest Territory. It's Appalachian
- TIL, thanks!

Upper South.

Although it's a trick question of sorts. Eastern Kentucky, the Golden Triangle, and the Purchase might not all be in the same region of the US.

Midwest 🤷? It's somewhere in the middle though, right? European, so don't really know the US map in detail.

I think most Americans would completely fail labeling a map of Europe and many would struggle with a US map.
- Oh I'm good with a European map, could also pioint to locations and names of capitals as well.

It is considered the southeast region.
