Out of Maryland, West Virginia, Kentucky, and Missouri, I'd rank them this way from most to least southern:
Kentucky + W. Virginia (tied)
Missouri
Maryland (distant third)
I haven't been to Missouri since the early 2000s, so my memory might be a little faded but I recall detecting elements of the north, south, and west there. Kansas City feels a little western or frontier-ish to me. St. Louis was very much Rust Belt in a way that would be familiar to anyone living east of the Mississippi River and north of the Ohio River.
