How many states have I been to?

Mark each state on the map and the number appears at the top, along with your share of all 50 states and of the country's total area. Because Alaska alone is about 17.5% of US area (U.S. Census Bureau figures), one trip north moves the area figure far more than visiting all six New England states together.

The region bars use the four U.S. Census Bureau regions: Northeast (9 states), Midwest (12), South (16) and West (13). See them on the US regions map.

Going abroad too? The countries visited map works the same way for the whole world. To learn the states rather than tick them off, try the 50 states quiz, or explore each one on the interactive US map.

Frequently asked questions

How do I make a map of the states I have been to?

Tap each state you have visited on the map above (or type its name). The counter shows how many of the 50 you have been to and what share of the country that covers. Use "Copy share link" to send the exact map to someone, or "Save PNG" for an image.

What counts as visiting a state?

There is no official rule, so pick one and stick to it. A common standard is that you must have stopped and spent time there, for example a night or a meal, so driving straight through or changing planes at an airport does not count.

Is my map saved?

Yes, in this browser only (local storage). Nothing is sent to a server and there is no account. Clear it with Reset, or remove all Mapology data on the privacy page.

How many states does the average American visit?

No official statistic exists. Published figures come from opinion polls, which use different questions and samples, so we do not quote one here. What you can track exactly is your own count.

Does Washington, D.C. count as a state?

No. Washington, D.C. is a federal district, not one of the 50 states, so this map counts the 50 states only.

Which states are hardest to visit?

Alaska and Hawaii, because they are far from the lower 48 and usually need a flight. Among the contiguous states, North Dakota is often one of the last people reach, since it is far from big tourist routes.
