New Zealand Family React to All 50 STATES in AMERICA Ranked WORST to BEST (HOW DID YOUR STATE RANK?) 

I'm sorry if this sounds corny but I love every state for a different reason. There is beauty everywhere in the USA.

I think all of our states have something to offer. It's like 50 siblings living in 1 household. We're brothers and sisters - each with our own individual styles, likes and dislikes, and sibling rivalries. Nevertheless, we're family and I love our uniqueness. 🇺🇲 P.S. Rock on, Michigan 🤘🏻

Wow! This was brutal! Do not take everything he says to heart. Every state has its ups and downs, of course, but every state is beautiful and has lots of fun stuff to do.

This definitely isn’t a list for best states to visit! It’s a great statistical analysis for states to live in, but a tourism list would be much different 😂

I live in Alabama, grew up in Mississippi and my whole family is from Tennessee. The South is a beautiful, friendly place. Just like all the others they all have problems but when I walk outside at night and it looks like we are drapped in stars and it's so quiet, I wouldn't want to live anywhere else

Wow! As the creator said, it was his opinion. As a truck driver, I have traveled through many of the states. On the whole all of the states are friendly, have their own beauty and charm. Everything has its pros and cons like I'm sure NZ has. So on your visit, pick the highlights you want to see but also go off the beaten path. You may find a hidden gem! I hope you have a blast while you are here but it will take more than one visit to see it all. It's a big place lol.

I’m from Louisiana and saying it’s #50 is completely out landish to me. It is really safe here except with New Orleans which is like almost all cities. The food is amazing and everyone is so nice here. Hurricanes aren’t so bad as long as you don’t choose somewhere where it will flood. The government is not really corrupt now tho it was in the past around a century earlier. Also the only reason for the pollution is because everything states in the mid west dump goes straight down the Mississippi to us.

I hear him constantly talking about how horrible the south is for their low income and poverty levels but it is also insanely cheap to live in most areas in the south. Someone living in New York making 100k a year living in a 700 sq. ft apartment is considered middle class but someone in Alabama making 30k a year living in a 2000 sq. ft. house is often considered poor. The south is one of the most beautiful areas with long coastlines and hundreds of lakes, mountains, hills, valleys, and vegetation. The lower life expectancy is largely due to the overall southern diet and way of life. Jobs in the south are often physically demanding and can often be dangerous. We also live much further apart than those in the north which allows us more freedom to do what we want on our property. You'll often see people shooting guns, fireworks, and explosives on their own property for fun. You can't always do that in many northern states. I'm not knocking the North down, they have some good things going for them as well, especially Michigan, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. I'm just saying some of his arguments are very surface level. Income levels mean nothing if you don't simultaneously compare them in a ratio with the cost of living. Crime rates in nearly every state are also not things you can go off since most states have the vast majority of crime concentrated in one or two cities. States here are as large as entire European countries and painting the whole state with one brush is extremely difficult.

Each State has it's own beauty.

I find it hilarious as a New Yorker who now l ives in TN that NY was rated so much higher. NO WAY. There wasn't much data to back up claims for any of these rankings either.... and I say that having been to all except for 5 states...

I would say that Michigan is definitely underrated. It's far north enough that the summer's aren't too hot and you don't have to worry about deadly snakes or insects. But it's not too far north, so we have gorgeous summers, which allow us to enjoy the beautiful lakes that look like oceans.

I’ve lived in Utah for many years and love it. There are lots of job opportunities, low poverty rate, great education, probably the best state to raise kids in my opinion and if you’re an outdoorsy person there is a ton of great hikes and stunning views. From the southern Utah desert to the beautiful snowy mountains Utah has a lot to offer.

Wisconsinite here, and we take a lot of pride in being out in nature. During the winter it gets really cold here, yet you will see people outside ice fishing, going for walks on nature trails or skiing/snow shoeing. The summers are beautiful here, and can get quite hot so we love to spend time outside walking nature trails, relaxing out on a river/lake in a boat, and grilling outside. We make some really good beer, and have 600 varieties of cheese made in the state. We like to combine our beer and cheese along with whatever else we can find, and find any reason we can to have a tailgate/cookout. We have some of the friendliest people in the country living in our state, and we also make fun of ourselves just because. We have a comedian from Wisconsin named Charlie Berens who makes fun of everything people do in Wisconsin as well as around the Midwest, and we love it.

As an Arkansan, I know the issues surrounding my home state, but it has its own beauty

No matter what I will always love Texas. We have mountains, canyons, hills, crystal clear lakes, clean rivers, plains, and we are a costal state. If you can’t find something for you in Texas you just haven’t looked.

New Hampshire also has both coastline and mountains within a 3 hour drive. New Hampshire has NO STATE SALES TAX and NO STATE INCOME TAX. And you can DRIVE to the top of Mount Washington on the Auto Road, or take the scenic Cog Railway to the top. At the top is the Visitors Center with a restaurant, gift shop, and the Observatory. The fastest wind gust in the world was recorded there in the 1940's at 237 miles per hour.

Utah is definitely worth visiting, especially Southern Utah. It's absolutely gorgeous.

I wouldn’t take this guy’s opinion too seriously. Every place has its good & bad. I’m sure NZ has good & bad as well.

Great video. I loved staying in the hotel shown for New Hampshire the Mount Washington Hotel very beautiful . A close second was staying at Mountain View Grand.

I'm a New Yorker, raised in the Bronx, third generation, lived and worked in Manhattan for a decade. So yes, I do recognize all the photos of NYC, and the photo of how beautiful "upstate" NY is a shot of the city I have lived in for over 30 years known as Beacon (we are also a nice riverside train ride to midtown Manhattan, so you get the best of both worlds). I personally love the place.

The United States is a huge country. The major cities make up the majority of the statistics within each state. Every single state here is mostly beautiful and amazing for its own reasons. As someone who was born and raised in Tennessee and has traveled this country, don't let this video dissuade you from visiting any state in this beautiful place. Every single state has something unique and special to offer that you can't find anywhere else.

We live in Utah, and love it skiing in the winter time hikes in the summertime fishing boating, but I'm sure everybody loves their state or they wouldn't be living there, I hope you guys have a very merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year!

Maryland is awesome!! We're on the incredibly beautiful Chesapeake Bay and have amazing farmland, beaches, and mountains. If you visit "The Old Line State" (conveniently located in the middle of the East Coast) be sure to try some crabcakes and Berger's cookies. Stop in Ocean City to walk the boardwalk and grab a bucket of Thrasher's Fries. Enjoy the Amish markets and the charm of many small towns. 😊 I love something about every state I've visited. We are definitely a large melting pot!! 🇺🇸

As a New Hampshire resident, I agree with how wonderful it is to live here. 😊

Was glad to see Utah at number 2. I've seen other videos that rank it at number 5. It is so gorgeous here and there are so many beautiful sites to see and activities to do all year.

Living in New Hampshire for the last 35 years, I can't really disagree. The people are friendly, work is plentiful, taxes are low, landscape is gorgeous and varied. Yes, it gets cold and snowy in the winter, but the other 8 months have spectacular weather.

I wish they would’ve shown more of the beauty of Minnesota. Summertime is fantastic. We’re not called the Land of 10,000 Lakes for nothing. There are actually many more than that. It was cool being in the top 5 though!!

I'm another Utahn, It's super topographically diverse. I can experience everything from dense pine forests to pink-red deserts without leaving the state or sometimes in my own case the county. I can experience 112 degrees F in July and -15 degrees F in January without driving for more than 6 hours or leaving the state, also both of those locations are technically deserts. There's a small history museum for basically every town you come to and in it, you will find some volunteers waiting to show you the town's first X-ray machine(I've seen one of these in more than 4 little town museums all over Utah) and other similar items. History is all around us and we take the time to preserve it from prehistory to the 1940's there's some kind of a sign to tell you about the place you're standing in.

I’m from Minnesota and was delighted to see us at # 5. I was surprised that he didn’t mention the natural beauty and we’re called, “The land of 10,000 lakes” although we actually have over 14,000 in a relatively small state. The cold 🥶 is a huge drawback though, but we have wonderful summers with water activities obviously a huge part of our summer fun.

Utah really is so beautiful. If you need something you don't have to be afraid to ask your neighbors, everyone is so willing to help. The scenery is exquisite!

There’s a reason South Carolina was the 2nd most moved to, it’s an amazing place to live! The crime rate is extremely disproportionate so the lower part of the state usually has more crime than the upper! But either way, the upstate has beautiful lakes and obviously there are some great beaches to visit! The upstate is just an hour and a half from major cities like Atlanta and Charlotte but also just a few hours from the Florida border. It truly is a wonderful and convenient place to live.

You will find beautiful vistas and people in every state. I’ve lived in four Southern states for 10+ years in each state. I can’t wait to see our country through your eyes because I’ve enjoyed seeing yours through your eyes!

Oregonian here! As the narrator said, we have some issues, a pretty bad homeless problem, really high rent/housing prices, but we’ve got the beach, mountains, high deserts, forests, no major big insects, no hurricanes or tornadoes or sales tax. I love it! 🙂

I live in Massachusetts right on the border of New Hampshire. There is so much to enjoy in all the states but every time I watch your show I always think you guys should visit New England during the end of Summer and beginning of Fall . You can see the foliage and will probably still get a few warm days to go to the Beaches, Hike, and hit the Baseball games at Fenway in Boston. It is completely doable to visit Vermont, Maine, New Hampshire, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts and even Upstate New York in less then half a day drive tops depending on your starting point. Wherever you start your journey in America I hope you love it ! I will be watching :)

I love that N.H. came in 1st. My family been here since early1700. Beautiful ocean beaches, many rivers, and beautiful mountains. The people are great and every season (4) is wonderful. And did I mention safe.

I have a friend who fled from Washington because crime was so rampant, affordable houses were a dump, he had to work 4 jobs for a 2 bedroom apartment and only ate 2 meals a day.

As a New Mexican, our state definitely has its problems and a lot of those problems make it less than ideal for raising a family. That being said, I grew up here and I absolutely love it and it’s still definitely worth a visit. We have fantastic food, scenery and people!

I think the key to this video is that it was HIS opinion as well as the other metrics. My list would be vastly different. One thing it depends on is do you focus on the cities or the rural areas. It is purely subjective. I live in Colorado, and the cost of living is high in the cities. There are many rural areas that are affordable though. Love your channel! I have been watching for a while. When you come to the US, I hope you have a great time!

From Colorado.. I was pretty stoked we were in the top 10! I'm allergic to the green stuff, but I still like living here :). We don't have hurricanes, or bugs that "splat" when you smoosh them lol... they're more crunchy. Plus... the fam and I live close enough to the mountains that we can take the dogs up to explore the trails often :)

I have to say Michigan is HIGHLY underrated. The reputation and perception of Detroit seems to bring our state down on a lot of lists. But northern and West Michigan more than make up for it. To the north is spacious beautiful sights and a different way of life. West Michigan has Lake Michigan, tons of beaches and sights and things to do also. Small towns are great all throughout the state. My opinion only, of course. Go Blue!

There is no perfect state out there, you just gotta go into a state and get your feel for it and see if it is right for you and your family. Talking to folks that live in the state that you re interested in before you go helps a lot too.

Hello family. As a proud southerner I would like to invite you and your family for a visit and good ole southern meal. My wife and I currently live in Mississippi. We have been stereotyped for so long. However, I see quite a bit of folks moving here from northern states. Go figure.....love you guys. Keep up the good work.

Rhode Island is a very diverse state in topography as well as ethnicities, New England in general (Maine ,Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island), are a condensed area of American historical interest, and environmental beauty, while providing incredible opportunities of arts and culture. Well worth a visit!

Happy to be a Utahn! We got very pretty sights from the red rocks to the green, lush mountains and forests🙂

I live in Ohio and contrary to popular belief we have some pretty cool things here: Kings Island, Cedar Point, Put In Bay, Columbus Zoo, Cincinnati Zoo, Ohio State Football, Old Man's Cave, are a couple of things we have to enjoy. Having said that, all of our States...even the one directly north of us have great things to see and enjoy!

Utah here! Absolutely love it. Skiing in the Northern part of the state. Beautiful national parks in the southern half of the state! Great economy, schools, and healthcare. Absolutely love it here!

As a person from Michigan, I love our state. We have the UP and the Great Lakes and some of the best hunting and fishing in the country to go along with those. Minnesota may have 14000 puddles, but we have the most true lakes.

In the US everything is politically polarized. Opinions on the best/worst states is going to depend on whether you're a democrat or republican (big city or country). Statistics are even tweaked to give you the answers they want (which isn't unique to the US). He didn't mention tax rates, economic mobility, land availability, number of regulations, etc. Those things can all dramatically alter the order, depending on what your priorities are.

This makes me want to travel and see all the beauty in each state. I don't think I agree with his list, but it was interesting.

I live in the middle of Nebraska in a very rural area. Most people think the whole state is flat because they only travel on I-80 through the state. But it's geographically diversified. It's elevation goes from 840 feet to 5424 feet. Although there are no mountains there are lots of hills and bad lands and more miles of rivers than any other state in the US. Even though my husband and I grew up in another state we are proud to claim Nebraska as our home!

@9:17 "Is that a lake?" Yes, technically. That is Lake Michigan next to Chicago (and NW Indiana). It is huge.

I am from New Hampshire!! It is by far the best state to live in and it’s an amazing state to visit especially in the fall!!

I live in Tennessee but my family is from Mississippi and we go visit a few times a year. Maybe it's not great on paper, but the air is clean and the people are good. We were there for Thanksgiving and the front door was unlocked all day with neighbors and relatives coming in and out to visit a little while and have a slice of cake. That's sweet country living. If you're going rank MS low based on anything, it should be history. My family were slaves there just 5 generations ago. But they have owned land for the last 4 generations. And if you know anything about post-war Mississippi, you know that's quite an accomplishment 😊

I live in Utah and it is pretty decent. The cost of living has gone up quite a lot the last five years and in the more rural counties wages have been slow in going up. There are a lot of jobs available. The scenery is beautiful.

Definitely should have shown you more of Minnesota its so beautiful with so many natural lakes

I have lived in New York City for most of my life. I noticed that Sam reacted when the narrator said upstate NY was really affordable, which it is. Many people tend to think of New York as just the city, when it's actually a pretty big state. After NYC, the biggest cities are places like Buffalo and Rochester, where the cost of living is quite low, but you have to deal with brutal harsh winters with tons of snow. These cities are all several hundred miles from New York City.

If you come during our summer, Michigan has TONS of beauty and History to share!! Friendly people too

I was born and raised in Indiana, living there most of my life. When my husband retired and I became disabled, we moved to the mountains of Tennessee. It has more plusses than minuses. No income tax, cheaper all around taxes, except for food, but no state income tax!... So it equals out. The high prices for healthcare and medicines are making it's way here, making it tough for our community. I live in the mountains in a Tourist's town, nearest box store city is 30 miles away. The view from my house is beautiful! Very relaxing.

I was born and raised in Missouri. I moved to Texas to work after college and lived there for 23 years. I love them both. I'm a bit surprised about California, New York and Illinois. People are leaving there by the thousands for different reasons and those are the same reasons I would not chose to live there.

I’m from Washington State and Utah, and I love them both. Washington is only really rainy in the west. In central WA it got up to 47.2c degrees here one summer. The scenery is really diverse. We have mountains, oceans, lakes, rainforest, forests, deserts, and vineyards. We also pay well and have no state income tax. We do have a meth problem and expenses are going through the roof. People can be kinda unfriendly here. Utah is beautiful with better job opportunities and the people are really nice. It’s not very diverse though.

I've lived in several parts of Utah for about 35 of my 46 years alive, and traveled all over the western US. If you ever make a visit here, I highly recommend coming between Autumn equinox and the first week of October. Overall, that's the best weather, and most spectacular fall foliage (peak colors typically last few days in September). And if you decide to come in the next year, HMU. I can give your family a full guided tour that takes about 10 days, that will also cover bits of Arizona and Nevada, as well. We'd show you all the following: Arches, Bryce Canyon, Canyonlands, Monument Valley, the Grand Canyon, Hoover Dam, Las Vegas, Zion, Park City, the Alpine Loop, Salt Lake City, the Great Salt Lake, the salt flats, Antelope Island, Bear Lake, and more. OR Alternatively, if you wanted a more northern tour, we'd skip the bits in Arizona and Nevada, to the south. Instead, we'd show you Yellowstone, the Tetons, and Jackson hole, to the north.

As a proud born and bred New Hampshrite (who is not biased at all haha) I totally concur with our number one status. Actually, you can't go wrong with any of the New England states. I've traveled all over the US and there is nowhere else I would want to live. What I love best about NH is that I live in a small city of around 30,000 people, but it's like I live in the country. My house is surrounded by woods and wildlife and I only have a neighbor on one side. There are mountains, lakes and the ocean and Boston is less than an hour away (Montreal, Canada only a little over 3 hours). Love to spend the day in Boston, but always leave with a sense of relief knowing I am going home to my quiet little town. I will give a shout out to Maine, though. We spend our summers on the coast of Maine and we absolutely love it!

I have traveled and lived in many places in the United States and each of them have something that makes them special. However, I have really loved living in Utah. The people are wonderful and natural beauty of the state is breathtaking. There’s a reason that Utah has 5 National parks, 8 National monuments, and 48 state parks. You only have to drive a couple of hours to experience something magical and new… from the snow capped mountains the Unitas, to the orange rock bridges of Arches National Park, to the red spires of Bryce Canyon. But I’m little biased 😂😉

I’m in NH and we always are near the top of these lists but everyone reacts, ”huh?” and ignores us, another great reason to live here 🥳😎

I now live in Upstate NY. It's beautiful, rural and land cost is really affordable. I bought my 150 acres 20 years ago for 50K which is why I live here now instead of New England which is where my heart still lives (Born and raised there, a true blue New Englander). I've lived in VT, NH, MA and Maine in New England and CA, WA, GA and FL outside of New England and always kept moving back to the North East. You really cannot go wrong with those New England states! I am surprised that Vermont and Maine were not higher on the list.

I guessed New Hampshire. I have a cousin living there. We just moved to WA. Beautiful natural mountains and forests with gorgeous lakes, streams, and sounds.

I grew up in Florida, so many people have discovered it's beauty that it's getting a bit crowded. While serving in the Navy I visited more other countries than I have our states. My favorite country I found to be the best was your country of New Zealand. That was back in the 60's but I'm sure, like our country, it has changed . I hope one day I would love to be able to go back.

Born and raised in New Mexico, raised our family in Colorado and now we live in Hawaii. All three have a special place in my heart. 💕💕

I have traveled to every state and logged more than 60 days in each. Some have made my list as "never a destination." However, I did settle on South Dakota as where I finally settled down in. Yes, I have traveled to 56 countries and all 50 states, and South Dakota won me over. I'm currently building my house there.

Louisiana people have been friendly every time I’ve been there and the food is excellent. So, even number 50 rocks!

I live in New Hampshire. LIVE FREE or DIE! Family friendly, solid economy, freedom, close to the White Mountains, beautiful lakes, the ocean, Boston is nearby, and the small town communities make you feel connected. Granite State is #1 for a reason.

12:17 "that car has a dent in it" YUP, along with SO many of the cars in Atlanta like that one was XD

I live in Washington. The nature here is incredible. Even in the city I live in it practically feels like living in a forest. There are hiking trails everywhere. In the summer there are an abundance of lakes to swim in, and in the winter we are within driving distance to numerous mountains for skiing. The west coast of the state is sprawling with vibrant rain forests and experiences temperate seasons due to being sandwiched between the Pacific Ocean and the cascade mountain range. However, don’t be fooled into thinking all of Washington is the Gray skies and wet air of Seattle. The cascade mountains cut the east and west side of the state and half. everything east of the mountains is dry, blue skies.

I live in West Virginia and it’s the best state in the union. The indescribable natural beauty, outdoor adventure, low cost of living, friendliness, safety, serenity, amazing star gazing locations (including my yard) are only a few of the reasons it’s the best state. There is more noise inside my home from running appliances than there is outside my house. In addition, with a population of approximately only 2 million, there is plenty of open space without having to live on top of one another. I, personally, couldn’t live like that. I live in a county that doesn’t have even one traffic light and is home to more cows than humans. Wouldn’t have it any other way!

I love this channel, love from Kalamazoo, Michigan.

Yes Sam, that lake was Lake Michigan, one of the Great Lakes. Several states don't have an income tax, but there is a federal income tax. I live in #4 Washington state. Although he wasn't harsh enough. The scenery is spectacular, but the crime is high, as are the taxes, cost of living and unemployment. It is also one of the more politically progressive states causing many citizens to want to move if they could afford to.

Native Texan here. I’ve travelled to almost all 50 states and there is no other place I’d rather live.

I’ve recently discovered your channel and have been commenting. I have to say that you’ll want to visit Utah and spend time here focusing on both southern Utah, and northern separately. The southern half of the state has some of the most beautiful red rock formations in our many national parks, including delicate arch, which is a world famous formation, and is a wonderful, beautiful hike to go up and take a lot of photos. Northern Utah has more rocky and forested mountains and there’s a lot more green with lots of natural lakes where we love to spend our summers water skiing Northern Utah also has the highest concentration of snowboarding and ski resorts found anywhere giving us some of the most amazing year-round, outdoor activities and some of the most beautiful scenery. I highly recommend that you not only get familiar with Salt Lake City and its surrounding areas, but that you take a 30 minute drive up the canyon to Park city, Utah or some of the best skiing and snowboarding is as it is a small mountain town that used to be a silver mining town back in the 1800s, but has since become a scenic destination with lots of skiing and snowboarding during the winter but the Resorts also host mountain, biking, and hiking activities throughout the summer months.

I am a born Floridian and still live here in south west fl and I always here everyone say the weather is beautiful. As a native I can tell you it’s extremely hot and musty ALL year round except a week or 2 in winter. Temp’s averagely in the 90’s with 80-100% humidity so it feels like 100+ and the low altitude and sunshine makes most people get a sunburn is just a few hours

I've lived in or traveled to many of the states. There's something excellent about all of them. I recommend seeing them all.

I’m originally from NH, lived there my first 18 years of life! I’ve since lived in Japan, Ohio, Florida, and Texas and visited several other states. I can say for sure Maryland, New Hampshire and Maine are my favorite states 😊. Highly recommend the visit to NH and ME, you could do Mass, Nh, & ME all in one trip as they’re geographically very close! If you’d like help coordinating a trip & stops there id be happy to give you my recommendations for sight-seeing, activities, and places to stay. Much love from the 603 ❤️

Best place to live and best place to visit are two very different things! I wonder if there's a good video on best states to visit? Of course, what you'd most like to see and do can make the answer different for everyone.

Love when they talked about Rhode island. "Size is small but its about the motion 'of the air'. Mom looked at Dad and he seemed to be confused. But she got the joke lol

I'm from Washington state. I was disappointed he didn't mention our beautiful mountains....Mount Rainier is one of most beautiful mountains in America

Massachusetts here! Boston is wonderful…a very walkable city with some of the best hospitals and colleges. Everybody loves Cape Cod (for the lovely beaches and quaint Cape Cod homes) and the Berkshires (with its natural beauty). You can easily drive to all the other New England states to enjoy the beaches and state parks in Maine, the beautiful greenery and hills of Vermont, the incredible mansions in Newport, Rhode Island, and, of course, the beaches and state parks in New Hampshire. I can’t imagine living anywhere else!

im in Washington state, it has mountains within an hour or two of driving, on the west side are rain forests, its just a beautiful state

I recently stumbled upon y'all. I am from Huntsville, Alabama, so I loved the shoutout. However, I live in Denver, Colorado, and I have to agree that he placed it well, seeing as crime has gone up quite a bit over the last few years. I have not been to Vermont or New Hampshire, but I will next month, and I cannot wait!

Utahn Here! It's far from perfect (as every state is), but it's the #1 economy because its very friendly to tech businesses. Some of the fastest growing and most successful companies have come out of Utah in recent years. There's also an amazing artists culture, (Imagine Dragons, and Neon Trees came out of Utah). Despite it growing like crazy, its one of the nations best kept secrets.

i live in wyoming. in the northern (and east/central) part of the state. it's so beautiful. i was born in the south and in many ways it is still home to me :) i have traveled to many of our 50 states and find a certain charm in each one. friendly people can find other friendly people anywhere! but wyoming is home now for 40 years of my life and i wouldn't change that. come on over and enjoy yourselves! it has a wonderful laid back feel to it ...... probably that mountain air ....... in some ways the old west still lives on in wyoming!

2 Hrs from Blane, Wa. on the Canadian Boarder, Proud to be Fourth.. If you Make it to Seattle, A Must to SEE.. is the Salmon tossing at Pike Place Market and Undergound Seattle Tour, Have Lunch in the Space Needle, the Restaurant floor turns, as you sit and eat..Giving you a 360 Degree View at roughly 550 feet above the City... AMAZING!! Father was an Iron Worker/ Welder on the Needle.. Then there the Seattle Center and Marina to see, take a tour from the Seattle Docks, up and threw the Locks into Lake Washington and Back..

A few things you may not know about the State of Michigan, its the easiest state to tell someone where you live because the lower part of the state looks like a Mitten, just take your right hand look at it and you will be told where someone lives in that state. Michigan is surrounded by 4 of the 5 Great Lakes, although technically there are 6 if you count Lake St. Clair. Michigan like I mentioned earlier has two parts the Upper portion and lower portion. which connected via the Mackinac Bridge (pronounce Mac in Naw) The upper portion is known as the U.P. or its nickname the Yooper. Michigan is surrounded by the largest fresh water lakes in the U.S. and is one the only few that can be spotted from space for its shape. It has four seasons Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter though many say really only 2 Summer and Winter. Michigan is arguably the largest state east of the Mississippi. depending on how sever the Winter gets the great lakes can and do freeze over. While Detroit is Michigan's largest city it is not the capital nor is it the only city int he state too many people judge Michigan simply by judging Detroit which is unfair and the state is very beautiful inside and out of the City of Detroit.. Detroit is actually north of Windsor, Canada so heading South you end up in Canada. Hopefully one day you'll be able to visit and enjoy what Michigan has to offer.

Regarding Illinois, yes, that was a lake. Lake Michigan to be exact. The Great Lakes system contains around 21% of the world’s fresh water. Lake Superior is the world’s largest fresh water lake by surface area. I believe Lake Baikul (sp?) in Siberia is largest by volume because it is stupid-deep. Lake Superior gets pretty deep too, with a maximum depth of over 1000 feet. When you stand next to Lake Michigan or Lake Superior, it feels as if you are standing next to an ocean.

I was born and raised in Georgia. I love this state. It's the trees, older homes, and mountainous terrains for me. Honestly, every state has it's own beauty. I would love to visit everyone of them. Thank you for sharing this video.

I'm in New Jersey, and while property taxes are high, there is so much to love here. We are called the Garden State for a reason. A lot of farmland and beauty in South Jersey. We have shore points so beaches galore (though they could be maintained better). We rank second in education and eighth in healthcare. We also rank 3rd in public safety. This is pretty impressive considering New Jersey is only 8,722 square miles and over 9 million people live here, which works out to be about 1,275 people per square mile. Compare that to Utah, for example, which is 84,899 square miles and only has 3.3 million people living there. In fact, besides Washington DC, we are the most populated state per square mile in the entire U.S.

I live in far Southern Illinois and it's beautiful. This maker of the video seems to look at things from the perspective of a city dweller. That said: Utah, South Dakota, Idaho, Wyoming, Southern Indiana and south east Missouri are all on my list of places I've been considering moving to.

I live in West Virginia, and I know we may not have as much as other states, but I feel we do pretty well for ourselves.

As someone from Wisconsin, we take our beer and dairy very seriously here. On top of having 7 of the top 10 drunkest cities, we have 41 of the top 50 drunkest counties in the nation as well. You need a cheesemaker license here as well in order to make cheese

As someone who’s lived in California, Colorado and now Idaho, all three are great places to visit. CA isn’t affordable or very safe anymore, only family to visit. In Idaho, I’m not far from rivers and mountains, and I’m next to Utah and Wyoming for National Parks, if I want.

In Georgia you get a little bit of everything, big city, mountains, coast line and beaches, national parks, a lot of history and if you live in the middle of the state like I do then most can be traveled to in a few hours. I am not crazy about school system but in our area it’s not too bad. It is affordable and the weather is mild in winter to hot in summer. It is a great state to visit!

I’m in Mississippi. I know it gets a bad wrap but I love it here , living a simple rural life
