(Totally rewriting a reply so excuse any leaps in logic as I forget what I deleted.)
Midwestern United States has the distinction of being a census region, which is a very important and well defined metric. Regardless you've swayed me a bit, and I see now that it could be possible to rewrite this from a list of counties and businesses/things within them into a historical-sociological description of a more vague region referencing geographical/cultural points. But I maintain that this can only work if we can identify a through-line or (hesitate to use the word) narrative that would make an article actually cohesive and educational/explanatory. If its a cultural pocket, or was heavily defined by geography and weather incidental to such, or if some event affected this specific region differently than its surroundings, anything to distinguish it. I'd like to see what others think but for now any theoretical closer can discount my !vote as nomGabberFlasted (

Draft Agree with nom, OR/SYNTH. None of the sources support article subject so this is essentially an unsourced article and is not suitable to stay in mainspace. If this is a notable subject (Reywas92 refs show it may be, but none actually define the subject,
[1] or define it significantly different from the article
[2],
[3],
[4]), drafting will provide time to find references with a properly sourced definition of Northeastern Pennsylvania that meets NGEO or GNG. //
