How on earth is a part of Massachusetts that’s west of what you consider to be western massachusetts not western Massachusetts?

It’s not , it’s the Berkshires. It’s in the far western end of the state. But it’s not the area referred to as Western Mass. it’s the area referred to as The Berkshires.

I'm from the Berkshires and you're wrong.

I’m aware of where/what it is. I grew up there and lived there most of my life. I assure you that it is both. Just like the north shore is in Eastern Mass, the Berkshires is in Western Mass

You're so wrong it actually hurts a little. Berks are very much considered Western Mass.

Always. I did a lot of hospitality work in the Berks and damn were Boston folks the worst. Was working at a hotel and had some dude from Boston complaining at check in how "nothing ever goes right when you come to the country." I told him he should probably head back to Boston then.
