How very close-minded of you!

Yeah this is ridiculous.

At least 40 or 45 are worth visiting.

They are ALL worth visiting. I've been to all 50. Lived in 14. I've found something to love about every single state.

+1. I’ve only been to 46, but they were ALL worth seeing.

Meh. There's a bunch for which you can see equally or more exciting features elsewhere. Delaware, Indiana, Oklahoma, etc

Life is short. The world is big. If you want to see all 50, that's cool, but you can be very well traveled without it.

People who say Meh, have never truly been anywhere.

Define anywhere....

48--not Alaska or Hawaii.

19

All but three - and my misses are on the two ends: Alaska, New Hampshire and Maine.

I want to go to ND. But not as much as several other states. Sucks that the oil companies bought it.

I spent about two weeks in OK, moving around the state. It sucks. No need to go, other than to tick it off.

I've been lax, but you can see the big flyover area that I've missed. I've been in several airports in that region, but never left the airports.


visited 38 states (76%)

I think that my count is 36. I've taken a couple of cross country Amtrak trips, so I've ridden through another 8 or so and especially enjoyed seeing the western states' scenery out the window, but I'm not counting those. But definitely have never been to NM, AZ, AR, OK, SD, or KS.

I've been to 35 and hope to get to all 50. I have traveled a lot outside of the US as well.

I am at 47 and agree with this. Except for maybe NJ. I had to work really hard to find anything redeeming about NJ. I thought it was a lost cause until I visited Princeton. Still my least favorite of the 47.

New Jersey actually kind of surprised me. I thought the areas around Lawrenceville and Princeton are really beautiful. I wouldn't want to live there, but it wasn't at all what I expected.

I've got 41 down (no counting layovers at airports). Still need Idaho, Kansas, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Dakota and Wyoming.

Every state except for Alaska, South Carolina, Arkansas, Oregon, Wisconsin, Michigan and Vermont.

3 of my remaining states I have a good chance of visiting in the next few years. The 4th is South Dakota and that would take some effort.

South Dakota is a beautiful place to visit, especially the western side.

Make it part of your next vacation.

Let me see:
MD, VA, DC, DE, NC, FL, TX, UT, CA, PA, NY.
I'm just counting the ones that I have stayed overnight for at least 2 nightd. I mean there were times in my younger years when we drove along the west coast, but we didn't really see OR or WA state, we just drove through and stayed at campground for 1 night, wake up and start driving again.
And some of the states are so big, it doesn't feel like you really get to know the place. TX and CA are huge. Houston is different than Dallas and Austin, etc. Northern CA is different than LA.

I would like to visit all and see more than just the National Parks.
