eh, I think the Rust belt at best can extend to Great lake cities in Upstate NY and maybe west Virginia, but once we cross the Appalachians I think its eastern Seaboard.

Rust belt comes from the Iron/steel belt which were the great lake industrial cities who began to lose their industry in the 1970's (even though thats largely a misconception some classic heavy industry disappeared but there is still plenty of manufacturing all over the "rust" belt)
