==Regional Identity==
The Memphis Metro area is known locally as the Mid-South. Culturally the Mid-South is more associated with the Deep South and even more specifically the Mississippi Delta than it is the Upland South, which is the case with Tennessee's other large cities. Memphis is the largest city in the Deep South, third largest in the Southeastern United States, and eighth largest in the Southern United States as a whole. African-Americans make up nearly half the population of the metro area. The Mid-South has the highest percentage of African-Americans of all large metro areas with at least a million people. It is second when metro areas of under a million people are factored in after the Jackson-Vicksburg-Brookhaven, MS Combined Statistical Area. The metro area is blue collar in nature and most of its growth can be attibuted to its logisitcal infrastructure. Recently, however, more companies with technology backgrounds such as Electrolux and Mitsubishi have begun making inroads in the Memphis area.〔(New Study Forecasts 4000 Local Manufacturing Jobs through 2016 )〕
Although Memphis is the cultural and commercial hub of the Mid-South; other cities have become key players as well. These cities include: Jonesboro, Arkansas, West Memphis, Arkansas, Jackson, Tennessee, Martin, Tennessee, Union City, Tennessee, Tupelo, Mississippi, and Oxford, Mississippi.
