In Illinois, Macoupin County has that transition. The county is in the St. Louis MSA, and both STL and Springfield/Champaign/Decatur stations have the county in their viewing areas and St. Louis and Springfield radio stations can be heard.
Southern Macoupin (Staunton, Bunker Hill, Brighton, Gillespie): STL-influenced.
Northeastern Macoupin (Virden, Girard, possibly Carlinville): Springfield-influenced.
Northwestern Macoupin (Chesterfield, Modesto, Palmyra): Jacksonville-influenced.
The dividing line between STL and Springfield may be either IL 16 or IL 108.
Next door Montgomery County also works to a lesser extent, as Litchfield serves as the transition between the two spheres of influence.
