Of course, since you live in New England, you probably consider Maryland
to be "down south".
Coming from Oregon, I am astonished every time I visit Minnesota and hear
that area referred to as "the northwest". Geographically speaking,
Minnesota is in the eastern half of the country!
It isn't just informal use, either. Consider Minneapolis-based Northwest
Airlines, which probably should have been called "Midwest Airlines"...
