Putting aside Chicago, I doubt it. Anecdotal, but I attended an Ivy, after growing up in Metro Detroit, and there were no large populations from any of these metros excepting a few elite high schools.
And Detroit has proportionally more HNW households than Cleveland or Buffalo, and is about 2x and 5x the population, respectively. One would expect more students.
Chicago is an enormous metro, and has higher proportion of HNW households than Detroit, so should easily have the most in raw numbers and proportionally. New Trier, a public high school in suburban Chicago, is probably the biggest Midwest Ivy feeder.
