Most of Kentucky is what you would call Southern. People in
Louisville and Covington, which is just across the river from
Cincinnati, however consider themselves to be more Mid-Western.
There's a even a movement, although it's a joke, about Louisville
seceding from the rest of Kentucky and becoming the 51st state.

I've been here 20 years and not heard that. Though the rest of the state
probably would be fine if Louisville did, especially taking the University
of Louisville basketball team.
