They screwed up the Chicago area so badly. Porter County, Indiana is exurban. You have to drive through tons of cornfields to reach rapidly-exurban-ing satellite cities like Portage and Valparaiso. Will and Lake Counties in Illinois are middle suburbs; they connect directly to the similarly-dense suburbs of Cook County.
Also, most of the counties that have smaller cities in Indiana are not "middle suburbs". They're still more rural than anything else.
Also, in terms of the state as a whole and not just the number of counties classified in a certain way, Illinois better represents Middle and Urban suburbs. It's "Middle America" in that Illinois is a fairly accurate representation of America as a whole, but the state's more urban character (obviously dominated by Chicago and its suburbs) puts it apart from places like Indiana and Ohio and doesn't make it "rural middle America".
