I was born up north and lived a couple years in Glen Ellyn (still have family up there) but raised down here in SO ILL. What area did you live in down here?0

I live in the Chicagoland area, but my dad's side of the family is from the Harrisburg/Carrier Mills/Shawneetown area. Random fact: the town Harrisburg is named after distant relatives of mine.0

I went to Centralia High School.
I've lived near Mt Vernon, Centralia, Salem, and Edwardsville.

Of course, we all have to agree on a definition of Southern Illinois!
What I use:
North of I-80 -- N. ILL
I-80 down to I-74 (especially on the eastern side of the state): NorthCentral IL
I-74 down to I-70 -- Central IL (and broken into East Central and West Central
I-70 down to the state line: Southern Illinois.
Of course, anything south of I-64 (Mt. Vernon) is Little Egypt.0 -
Isn't the division of Illinios: Chicago and "The rest of Ilinios"?
hahaha just kidding/being a smart *kitten*0 -

That's what I was always taught. And I was born and raised in Little Egypt and finally found my way home recently. But I like Dan's definition, too. I get SO tired of people finding out I live in Illinois and then asking me how I like Chicago. Um, I'm like, as far away from there as you can get and still be in Illinois - there's more to this state than the Windy City. :laugh: 0 -
