![Though regional definitions vary from source to source, Arizona and New Mexico (in dark red) are almost always considered the core, modern-day Southwest. The brighter red and striped states may or may not be considered part of this region. The brighter red states (California, Nevada, Utah, and Colorado) are also classified as part of the West by the U.S. Census Bureau, though the striped states are not; Texas and Oklahoma are classified as part of the South.[1]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Southwest_map.png)
