then it sounds like it can be either Missouri or Arkansas...but the problem is....coastline?!? you mean the coastline is like a part of Mississippi River?? Hmmm...
does this state have more than 7 letters?

It is neither Missouri nor Arkansas. The coastline in question is not a river (though rivers do form part of this state's borders).
This state has more than seven letters.

Again, the city is below the Mason-Dixon's latitude. I didn't say the whole state was.

I am not in Tennessee, nor in the northern part of a state.
I am in Metropolis, Illinois.
The Mason-Dixon Line is at 39 dgrees, 43 minutes north. Metropolis, Illinois is at 37 degrees, 9 minutes north. Illinois extends quite far south and Metropolis is near the very bottom of the state.
As for the coastline, Illinois borders on Lake Michigan (admittedly at the other end of the state), which is considered coastline in at least the sense of the term of tidal shoreline. There has been at least one other round where Pennsylvania was described as having a coastline--which it does on Lake Erie. If that's too confusing, the word "seacoast" may be less ambiguous.
Anyway, on to Eryk.

For the record, PA also has a coastline on the Delaware Estuary (which one might argue is part of the ocean). I'd agree with counting coastlines on the Great Lakes for the general question of "Does it have a coastline?", however.
Anyway, I suspected you were in Illinois based on the clues, but it took me awhile to come up with somewhere significant enough in the wasteland of Southern Illinois that you might be!
I probably won't be back on until tomorrow morning, but, in the meantime... Where am I?

Except for maybe the college town Carbondale and the historically important Cairo (pronounced like Kayro Syrup), I don't think there is another city in Southern Illinois most people would have heard of, but, of course, I knew someone in this crowd would know Metropolis.
Are you north of the Equator?

*groan* I should have known better about Metropolis! its os obvious.
I have been to Carbondale, Ill before....way back in 1994....SIU (Southern Ill Univ, IIRC) and famous horse harness racing. what an interesting week there, heh.
Question: are you in the mountains?
