Four Directions #16: Where and what am I?
$begingroup$
Inspired by MetaZen's riddles, I figured I might try making one. It's definitely not as...indirect...as their puzzles, but still difficult nevertheless.
To the south and east is the North West
To the north is the Midlands
To the west is a Magic Carpet Ride
If someone told you the name of my area, you'd assume that it rains a lot, but it doesn't
Hint 1:
This place is closed until 2021

Decided to see if there were any interesting puzzles on the front page today. Nice surprise! I think we got up to #15 before it wound down. (See Related).
