I dunno, deindustrialization is fairly recent in KY, and the weather is better. Culturally, southern IN and OH are basically extensions of the Upland South, too. Settlement there came through the Ohio River valley. You can still hear the difference between the two, and both Indianapolis and Columbus have neighborhoods on their south sides that are for all intents and purposes redneck immigrant enclaves.
