I'm fine with defining Missouri as its' own region. It still resembles the midwest more than the plains or the south, though it shares qualities with them. But let me just tack one more nail in the coffin real quick.

A lot of people just lump the Plains states in with the Midwest and if you do that then you’d say Kansas City is in the Midwest. If you consider the Plains to be their own separate region then you’d call it part of the Plains. Culturally it’s got a lot more in common with places like Oklahoma City or Wichita than it does Minneapolis or Indianapolis.

Culturally it’s got a lot more in common with places like Oklahoma City or Wichita than it does Minneapolis or Indianapolis. Here’s how you identify these regions. The Plains have tornadoes and the locals acknowledge this. The Midwest also has tornadoes, but they pretend they don’t, with tragic results. The South also has tornadoes, but no one confuses them for the Plains or for the Midwest.
