In the Ranally city rating system, Chicago is ranked 1-AAA, which is the highest ranking of any Midwest city. Cleveland, Detroit, Minneapolis, and St. Louis are ranked 1-AA. Cincinnati, Columbus, Indianapolis, Kansas City, and Milwaukee are ranked 1-A. For the definition of the Midwest, I use the U.S. Census Bureau's official definition of the region, which is the 12-state region stretching from Ohio on the east to Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota, and North Dakota on the west.
