I'd call it a mountain state or just a plain western state.

I'd prefer it be called Mountain, but by current definition it is a Western state.

None of it is midwest like Ohio, Michigan, Minnesota. But the eastern portions have a lot in common with Kansas and Nebraska. But I'd say most of the state - and most of the people - live in the Mountain West.

"Colorado is part of the Western United States, the Southwestern United States, and the Mountain States."
This must be true... Wikipedia knows everything.

WHY YES, YES IT MOTHERF*CKING IS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Most of the people DO NOT live in the western part of the state catchall!
The VAST MAJORITY live in the Denver area which is in the NORTHEASTERN portion of the state.
The population of Colorado is a little over 5 million, and the greater Denver area is 2.5 million. I do believe that is DAMN NEAR HALF.

Denver's 100 miles from the northern border of the state and nearly 200 miles to the eastern border. I'd hardly call it 'northeastern'. I guess if you're dividing the state into quadrants that's the one it'd fall into, but if you polled 100 Denver residents I don't think that even one would consider themselves as living "in the northeastern part of the state.
Colorado has very little in common geographically, agriculturally or culturally with the Ohios/Michigans/Indianas of the world, so it just doesn't make sense to consider them as the same region.

Wow, thats a vehement reaction. Yeah, sure. But the Denver mentality is definitely mountain oriented, not plains. Ask anyone in Denver whether they drive easy or west on the weekend and 99% wii tell you west.
