Who Loves the 1980s Most?

After seeing the SlashGear article on an NES controller coffee table, it made me wonder what parts of the country were the most nostalgic for the 1980s. The top five states were: Iowa, Ohio, New York, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania. Iowa specifically seems to be partial to 1980s movies. The other states apparently go fo the whole package (movies, music, fashion, etc.). So my question is, why do Iowans love 1980s flicks so much? The only thing I can think of was that the 1980s movie "Field of Dreams" was filmed, at least partially, in Iowa. The field from the movie continues to be one of the biggest tourist attractions in Iowa, which is perhaps reason enough to love the 80s.
