	AllRefer.com - Rust Belt, United States (Miscellaneous U.S. Geography) - Encyclopedia
		Rust Belt or Rustbelt, economic region in the NE quadrant of the United States, focused on the Midwestern (see Midwest) states of Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, and Ohio, as well as Pennsylvania.
		The term gained wide use in the 1970s as the formerly dominant industrial region became noted for the abandonment of factories, unemployment, outmigration, the loss of electoral votes, and overall decline.
		By the 1980s, the economy of some Rust Belt cities had noticeably improved after the introduction or expansion of non-manufacturing industries.

	Rust Belt - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Rust Belt, a term coined from Manufacturing Belt, is an area in parts of the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic regions of the United States of America.
		The Rust Belt can be broadly defined as the region beginning immediately west of the BosWash corridor (but including New York City and northern New Jersey) and running west to eastern Wisconsin.
		The term "Rust Belt" is a neologism created by analogy to Sun Belt, Grain Belt and Bible Belt.

		The Rust Belt, also known as the Manufacturing Belt, is an area in the northeastern and north-central United States whose economy was formerly based largely on heavy industry, manufacturing, and associated industries.
		This area is roughly defined as comprising the northern sections of Indiana and Ohio; the northeastern corner of Illinois; the Lower Peninsula of Michigan; the Lake Michigan shoreline of Wisconsin; parts of upstate New York; at least the western half of Pennsylvania; and the northern part of West Virginia, especially that state's Northern Panhandle.
		As a result, the economy of Rust Belt areas was decimated as one factory after another was driven out of business and closed down.

	CD Baby: RUST BELT MUSIC: Deborah
		Rust Belt Music's songs are a mix of rock, folk and country-western (with an occasional Moog line added for spice), and follow the path paved by Tom Petty, Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Eagles and Woodie Guthrie,as well as contemporaries like early REM and The Meat Puppets.
		With the release of Deborah, Rust Belt Music have been able to carve out a niche for themselves in the music world somewhere between early R.E.M. and Grandadddy.
		The eighth track 'a) Love in the Rust Belt b) Love in the Sun Belt c) Love in the Grain Belt' is easily the strongest track on Deborah displaying a maturity that many bands lack on their freshman releases.
