Middle America

Middle America can mean:


 * the portion of the American continent comprising Mexico, Central America, and according to some descriptions, the Caribbean and northern South America
 * a colloquial term for the portion of the United States away from the coasts, where rural areas and conservative politics and social views predominate. Boundaries are vague (Middle America in this sense is as much an abstract concept as a physical place) but correspond very roughly with the Midwest, the Great Plains, and to an arguably lesser extent the South, Texas, and the Rocky Mountains.
