  Mid sized cities in the region are very habitable, diverse, and reasonably priced. Indianapolis, Columbus, Cincinnati, Lansing, Green Bay, Springfield, etc. The big cities are harder but still better than the coasts, $$ wise. I think Milwaukee is reasonable, though. Diversity will vary a lot. The manufacturing cities are pretty diverse: My city is about 60 percent white and 40 percent POC. They do lean more towards 'working class' liberal than 'professional' liberal. More 'rah rah unions' and less Ibram Kendi. Though if you're in a university city or capital, both are decently represented. If you meant other than racial, I haven't had a problem being gay in any of those areas since the mid-00s and a lot of those cities have small but thriving immigrant populations and the cities are small enough that there is political diversity coming in from the burbs/rural areas. I feel like those areas are more diverse than the big big cities I have lived in. (Boston, Seattle, Vancouver).
