Michigan is soundly Midwestern lol you definitely cannot call Ohio and Michigan part of the East Coast, and both of those are East of Chicago. Chicago is in the heart of the Midwest.
Not East Coast but certainly Rust Belt or Great Lakes region. Nothing in Eastern Time is in the Midwest. It’s the East. That’s why they called it “Eastern Time”.
We’ll have to disagree here. Part of Michigan is in CST, and living here my entire life everyone knows we’re Midwestern. Weird way for a Chicagoan to try to distance themselves from us when we’re next door neighbors.

Why would the name of the time zone matter? Also the upper peninsula of Michigan extends west of Chicago, can half the state be Midwestern?
Sure, but just the UP, everyone knows it should have been Wisconsin from the beginning anyway. /s

By that logic, 87% of Indiana is not in the Midwest.
I’ll go further and assert that none of Indiana is in the Midwest.
