The Great Lakes Midwest includes lakefront metropolitan areas, inland cities, university towns, and rural communities. Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, and Minneapolis illustrate different urban settings within this broad grouping.
Proximity to a Great Lake can influence local weather, but lake-effect snow does not affect every city equally. Inland and southern parts of the region also differ from northern lakefront locations.
