Please tell me if the capitalization of the word "Midwestern" is correct in the following two sentences:
1.) Study participants were all smokers chosen from a Midwestern city in the United States.
2.) Study participants were recruited from six ambulatory care clinics within a large Midwestern US healthcare system.
I had always thought that geographical areas were to be capitalized, but just lost points on a paper for doing so. Is there a rule for this?
Thank you for your time,
Tanders
