When I was younger my sister and I would watch Little House on The Prairie EVERYDAY over summer. We watched so much we would see repeats and we got to know the characters very well. When ever I think of the middle of the country and states like Nebraska and Kansas I think of that TV show. I also think even now how separated these states are from New York or even Cali. There are no grasslands in Manhattan. No one raises cattle or churns their own butter either. Even in the old days New York wasn't so old fashioned, they were ahead of the times and still are today.
To get into the more specifics of the plains and prairies, they arent just feilds of grass and wheat. The states in this region serve as backdrops for many movies and attract tourists with their great geographic features such as their open lands. Many California residents are moving to these states for the lower cost of living. Also all these stats are in the middle of the country its just a two or three hour flight to either LA or NY. Not a bad deal if you have family on the coasts and like nature :)
If you do not however, New York goes far and beyond nature. Obviously this area differs from New York in that NY has more population, more urbanization and more building. I wouldn't say NY conducts more business because there is plenty business to be had in the prairies as fair as wheat and cattle are concerned but there is deffinately a bigger population. Throughout this blog I have of written lots about what New York is and is not. And people who have grown up in Manhattan will deffinatly not survive in a sity like Whichita, Kansas.
The next post we will go into more fast areas of land and state in the Empty Interior and I will offer new insite and fashion tips :)
The Journey
I have lived in California all my life and have loved every moment of it with the occasional roller coaster ride. As a fashion student I love style and how every county, state, and city has its own. Then I traveled over 3000 miles to study in New York. What an eye opener! There is so much more than my little corner of so cal. I want to become a world traveler and reputable fashion show producer but most important I want to live. My journey starts here. What seems to be a simple geography assignment will actually become a life assignment in fashion and travel.
