I was just thinking of getting a little bit of discussion going, and this seems to be a subject that I like to talk about.

How many U.S. states have you visited? Which state was your favorite (it can be the state that you live in)? If you had to move to another U.S. state, which would it be? Is there a state you have never been too that you would really like to see?

My states:

I have been to 12 states: West Virginia, Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Deleware, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, and Ohio.

My favorite state was Ohio because of Cedar Point, which is quite an impressive amusement park. My least favorite believe it or not, was Florida because it is so miserablely hot there (even in Feb.) If I had to live in another state, it would probably be North Carolina or Ohio. I have family that lives in western NC, and I thought it was great when I went and visited. Ohio is great because of Cedar Point, but that's about it.

I really want to see Oregon, and my friend and I will probably go on a road trip after we graduate college, in which we will go through Minnesota (his friend lives there), South Dakota (Mt. Rushmore), Wyoming (Yellowstone), Boise, Idaho (I want to see the blue football field, college football fans), southern Oregon (Pacific Ocean), Northern California, Denver, and then the rest doesn't really matter to us.

So Smogon, what states would you like to see or have you seen?
 
Hmm, the states that I remember: Colorado, New Mexico, California, Arizona, Oklahoma, Texas. The states that I was too young to remember: Montana, Utah, Wyoming.

I really liked Oklahoma, but that was probably just because I had such a great time there (hanging out by the lake all weekend long) with my friends. It was one of those spontaneous trips that was planned Thursday night at 10pm and we left Friday afternoon (got off early from work) at 2pm; with the sole purpose of visiting friends we hadn't seen in ages.
 
Well lets see... I lives in Cali...

Visited washington, oregon, nevada, arizona, texas and luisianna. My favorite other then where i live would be a toss up between Oregon and Luisianna... New Orleans was amazing, but Oregon has the whole punkster scene....
 
Interestingly enough, I live in Oregon, and while it is very pretty, there is also very little to do. The only real attraction is Crater Lake, and skiing.

Back on topic, I have been to California, Oregon, Washington, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, Nebraska, Missouri, and Tennessee, so 10 in all.

The real reason that I want to see Oregon so much is because of the Pacific Ocean, and out of the 3 contential states that touch it, Oregon seems to grab my attention the most. I do not know why. I wouldn't mind checking out Seattle either, but I heard it rains, A LOT.

Seeing the Pacific Ocean though will easily cost me a hand and a foot though. I live only 4 hours from the Atlantic Ocean, so if I did it via road trip, I would probably spend 700 dollars or so in gas. I really don't want to fly there though.
 
Illinois, Washington, Oregon, California and Wyoming

And I'm from Canada

Edit: Count Minnesota if you consider staying there for 4 hours in an airport.
 
I'm from Texas, and I've been to:
Washington, Oregon, California, Nevada, Utah, Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, Oklahoma, South Carolina, North Carolina, Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Washington D.C. (Not a state, but whatever), New York, Vermont, and Maryland. I think that covers all of them.

Did a number of college tours as a senior, and visited family and stuff. I did debate in high school, which took me around a lot, and then I've gone with my little brother for some of his bagpiping contests. Plus Boy Scouts, because unlike in states where summer is bareable, summer camps in Texas are insanly hot.

"If I owned land in Hell and in Texas, I'd live in Hell and rent out Texas."
 
Live in Michigan, been to:
Ohio, Wisconsin, Indiana, Illinios, Virginia, West Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky, North and South Carolina, New York, Maine, Missouri, Massachusettes, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maryland, D.C., and Pennsylvania. Also, I've been to LAX airport (the airport in Los Angeles, CA for those who don't know) en route to Australia, but I never left the airport so I'm not sure if that counts.

19 states, 1 district, and 1 airport haha.

My family is planning a trip out west possibly this summer, so I'm probably gonna increase this number by a few. Some states I really want to go to are Alaska, Colorado, California (for real), Arizona, Washington, and Florida. Not really sure why for most, they just sound completely different from what I'm used to.
 
I've been to Nevada, New York, New Jersey, Deleware, Maryland, and Arizona. I don't think I could live anywhere besides Cali, though. But if I really had to pick, it would be Nevada. I go there a few times a year anyway so it's like a second 'state home' to me. That, and it has Vegas.
 
I live in Vancouver, BC. I've been to three states I believe. Washington quite frequently, Oregon three times, and New York once.

Went to Portland for a robotics competition two different times which was a multi-day stay. Not much time looking around. My family went there once for some reason but we only stayed a day and didn't see much that time either.

New York was just while visiting Toronto. We didn't even go to NYC. Just down over the Canada-USA border to do some shopping in the Buffalo area.

Washington. Lots and lots of trips to Seattle and Bellingham.

I don't think I'd be able to stand living anywhere in the US aside from the coastal states. Even then I'd rather live anywhere in southern Canada than the US!
 
I live in Minnesota and I've visited: North Dakota, South Dakota, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Wisconsin, Colorado, California, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Connecticut, New York, New Hampshire, Vermont, and Florida.

So 19 I believe
 
Hm...live in Michigan, been to: RI, MASS, NY, CONN, PENN, ILL, IND, OH, WIS, MIN, IO, TX, OK, NEB, KAN, MINN, MAINE, MO, NJ, DC, VA, MD, CA, CO.

So...24.

I've been to Illinois (Chicago), Nevada, Maryland, Pennsylvania, aaand that's it really! I used to go to Nevada during my youth with my sister to my then step grandparents' house, her grandparents, and we'd be there for a while. My family goes to Maryland every other year, and I've been there a few times by myself to visit some family. I only count Pennsylvania because my family has actually stayed a night there once or twice en route to Maryland, but we never really do anything there but sleep!

Not really presented in a way that's going to get a lot of discussion, not really any discussion happening, and with people posting with lists and all this isn't likely to get much. Lockin'
