Third Coast
Third Coast is an American colloquialism used to describe coastal regions distinct from the East Coast and the West Coast of the United States.
Generally, the term" Third Coast" refers to either the Great Lakes region or the Gulf Coast of the United States.
Considering its Great Lakes coasts, Michigan has more miles of shoreline than does any other of the lower 48 states and more fresh water shoreline than any other state.
When considering the sheer size of the Gulf of Mexico bordering the southern United States, the combined Great Lakes' square mileage of 94,250 is dwarfed by the Gulf's size of 600,000 square miles.
Many regional businesses incorporate the term" Third Coast" in their names and products, such as Michigan's Third Coast Kite and Hobby, which has an image of the coastal dunes in its logo, and Texas- based Third Coast Coffee.
Rap and hip hop music acts from Houston, and other Gulf Coast cities in the southern United States, are often referred to as emerging from the Third Coast.
