The states of Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Kentucky, Tennesee, and Alabama aren't far from the Atlantic Ocean at all! I mean they are closer to New York City than they are to Lebanon,Kansas (the most central city in the United States). I don't even think these should be striped! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.106.143.214 (talk) 00:00, 14 March 2007 (UTC).Reply
The Central states should be the ones that are all in the Central time zone and on the eastbank of the Mississippi river, and the ones that are in the Central time zone and on the westbank of the Mississippi river. Its not all pretty yet it works while dividing the continuous U.S. into six regions of states, with Missouri, Colorado, Utah, Neveda, and California split between northern and southern regions overall; Northest, Northcentral, Northwest, Southeast, Southcentral, and Southwest. The Northcentral would be Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, and Missouri north of the Missouri river. The Southcentral would be Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, and Missouri south of the Missouri river. The Northeast would be from New Jersey and Maine to Indiana and Michigan. The Southeast would be from Florida and Delaware to Alabama and Kentucky. The Northwest would be from Nebraska and North Dakota to California north of 40 degrees and Washington. The Southwest would be from Texas and Kansas to California south of 40 degrees. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.95.218.64 (talk) 06:34, 25 September 2007 (UTC)Reply
This page should say something about the geographic central area of the United States, disregarding state boundaries or Census regions. I would say something along the lines of, roughly, Kansas, and most of the states that share a border with it. This might result in the possible need to cut up states, meaning, for example, only the Texas Panhandle region of Texas would be included. I might include states farther to the south, because I think that there is a bit of a northward bias of the geographic center of the United States as a result of including more than just land area. I think it would be good if this included the center of the US by both latitude and longitude. So, any ideas? Dustin talk 02:56, 26 February 2014 (UTC)Reply
Can you find actual citations where the phrase "Central United States" is used in such a geographic centroid sense similar to Geographic center of the United States? I have not seen the phrase used that way. The current article on the other hand cites actual examples of usage. --JWB (talk) 19:07, 4 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
