Michiana is a region in northern Indiana and southwestern Michigan centered on the city of South Bend, Indiana. The Chamber of Commerce of St. Joseph County, Indiana defines Michiana as St. Joseph County and "counties that contribute at least 500 inbound commuting workers to St. Joseph County daily." Those counties include Elkhart, La Porte, Marshall, St. Joseph, and Starke in Indiana, and Berrien and Cass in Michigan. As of the 2010 census, the population of those seven counties was 856,377 (647,271 in Indiana and 209,106 in Michigan).
The name is a portmanteau of "Michigan" and "Indiana" and was chosen as the winning entry, purportedly submitted by Thurman C. Crook, in a contest to name the area held by the Associated South Bend Merchants in 1934. The term is frequently used throughout the area, particularly by local radio and television stations based in South Bend that serve the entire area, but also by businesses that seek to draw customers from Indiana into Michigan or vice versa.

La primera vez apenas me gustó
fué por la nariz
por no decir que no
que el no es de cobardes
y a los dieciseis
se prueba como es de hondo
el rio con los dos pies
La segunda vez, me fué gustando mas
sentí su poder
su sensación de paz
y a los pocos meses
me empecé a picar
Yo siempre pense que lo podía controlar
lo de dejarlo ya lo he intentado más de una vez
y más de cinco y mas de diez
Pero no hay forma no hay manera
con la mierda del caballo no hay quien
pueda olerla es Meter los pies
Cuando no quedó ya nada que robarles
me empecé a chutar
delante de mis padres
pero me agobiaban
venga a preguntar
Dinos hijo mio: que es lo que hemos hecho mal
lo de dejarlo ya lo he intentado más de una vez
y más de cinco y mas de diez
Pero no hay forma no hay manera
con la mierda del caballo no hay quien pueda
Si estas enganchao
te quedan dos de dos
robar pa comprar
o venderla y sisar
Y las dos terminan antes o después
con el culo roto y el sida en Carabanchel
lo de dejarlo
lo de dejarlo.
