0:00I get requests all the time from people
0:02in other countries these are normally
0:04people that are thinking about moving to
0:06or just visiting the us but might not
0:08know much about the country past the
0:10stats and the travel guide type things
0:12come in for work they're coming for
0:14school whatever the case may be so today
0:16I thought we could just Summarize each
0:18state in the nation to give them a brief
0:20look and some information about the
0:23Nifty 50. and if you don't know what
0:24that means let's say you're from another
0:25country we have 50 states and one of the
0:28ways they help you remember that when
0:29you're like in elementary school is they
0:31give it that cute nickname the Nifty 50.
0:34that's what we're doing today got it get
0:36it good let's take a look number 50
0:38Alabama Spanish explorers are believed
0:41to have arrived in Mobile Bay in 1519
0:44sometime later the United States decided
0:46to go to the moon and Huntsville Alabama
0:48is where they made the Rockets to get us
0:50there they also played a big role in the
0:53Civil War and for a long time and still
0:56a little bit to this day they have a
0:57reputation for a little bit of racism
0:59like most the Southern States but they
1:01do have good people great universities
1:03and plenty of things to do number 49
1:06Alaska Alaska is one of two states that
1:08don't share border with any other states
1:10it is the largest state by area and the
1:1348th by population they don't have a lot
1:15of people they have less than a million
1:17people living there 736 000 to be exact
1:20but because the state's so big their
1:21population density is really low they're
1:24ranked 50th in the nation Alaska is
1:26known for its Wilderness it's hunting
1:28and fishing and cruise ship ports Alaska
1:31is one of the few states that is
1:32hemorrhaging residents a lot of people
1:34are moving to Alaska anymore a lot of
1:36people are moving out number 48 Arizona
1:38Arizona is a Southwestern State it is
1:41mostly desert even though it does have
1:43some mountains and some hills and stuff
1:44for the most part it's known for its
1:46deserts it's also known for its sunburn
1:48retirees and the Grand Canyon it's also
1:51one of the four corner States there's a
1:53point on the U.S map where Utah Colorado
1:55New Mexico and Arizona all meet at Four
1:57Corners Arizona is also surrounded by
1:59Nevada data in California to the west
2:01and Mexico to the South they have some
2:03pretty good universities here 47
2:06Arkansas Arkansas is known as the
2:08Natural State it is beautiful they have
2:11some amazing Landscapes they also have
2:12two of the most dangerous cities in the
2:14United States Pine Bluff and Little Rock
2:16stay away from those and it's pretty
2:18good I've said in many of my videos that
2:20the northwest corner of the state is a
2:22lot different than the rest of Arkansas
2:24Arkansas doesn't have the best
2:26reputation they're known for their
2:27Hillbillies their rednecks and
2:29uneducated residents they do have
2:31Hillbillies and rednecks but the
2:33uneducated part comes from way back and
2:35it's really not like that anymore they
2:36do have some good universities and not
2:38all their school districts are bad some
2:40of them are really really good if you
2:42like the outdoors this is a great place
2:4346 California everybody knows about
2:46California this is where Hollywood is
2:48this is where Silicon Valley is Los
2:50Angeles and some of the best beaches in
2:53the nation it's also home to Yosemite
2:54Disneyland and Sea World if you take New
2:57York Florida and Texas and Massachusetts
3:00out of the equation California makes
3:02more money than any 10 combined States
3:05but the state is terribly expensive and
3:07in a lot of areas extremely overcrowded
3:10with a serious homeless situation in Los
3:12Angeles and San Francisco if you ever
3:14hear it called the Golden State that's
3:15because they discovered gold there in
3:18the 1840s and had a gold rush through
3:21the late 1840s and 1850s number 45
3:24Colorado Colorado is known as the
3:26Centennial state because it became a
3:28state 100 years after the United States
3:30became a thing it is known for its Rocky
3:33Mountains and its natural beauty
3:35Colorado was sort of split in two you'll
3:38hear people refer to the Western Slope
3:39which covers Colorado's terrain west of
3:42the Continental Divide where you'll find
3:44cities like Grand Junction Montrose and
3:47Delta on the front slope which is the
3:49east side of the Continental Divide
3:50you'll find Colorado Springs Denver
3:52Boulder places like that Colorado has a
3:54lot of things to do a lot of good jobs a
3:57good military presence including the Air
3:59Force Academy Academy 44 Connecticut is
4:03a New England state that is not too far
4:05north of New York City a lot of the
4:07extremely wealthy people from New York
4:09City let's say financiers Bankers stuff
4:11like that own homes in Connecticut
4:12Connecticut is a strange State you will
4:15find some of the richest neighborhoods
4:17and towns in Connecticut at the same
4:19time finding some of the worst poverty
4:21outside the Deep South it's really
4:23strange State it's like they don't have
4:24much of a middle class they got the uber
4:26wealthy and The Tragically poor but they
4:29do have a Ivy League school Yale is in
4:31New Haven their biggest cities are
4:33Hartford and New Haven 43 Delaware
4:36Delaware is the first state yep it was
4:39the first state admitted into the Union
4:40and it is also the home of our current
4:43President Joe Biden its capital city is
4:45Dover and its largest city is Wilmington
4:48which normally doesn't make the Press
4:50unless it's something bad they got a lot
4:52of crime going on in Wilmington
4:53beautiful and historic City it's just
4:55got a whole bunch of crime and poverty
4:56right now Delaware is kind of small and
4:58oddly shaped and kind of hard to find if
5:01you don't know where it is so if you're
5:02looking at a map and you see
5:03Philadelphia and Washington DC it's in
5:05between there number 42 Florida Florida
5:08is known as the Sunshine State because
5:10they get a lot of it they also get a lot
5:12of hurricanes and they got alligators
5:13keep that in mind they're also known for
5:15having a lot of cruise ships going in
5:17and out of there and for having Orlando
5:19where you will find all kinds of
5:21amusement parks including Disney World
5:23it also has amazing beaches 41 Georgia
5:26just north of Florida you have Georgia
5:30known as the peach state Georgia is one
5:32of our Southern States and its biggest
5:34city is Atlanta they are also a state
5:36that has a big military presence and
5:39these days they've got a lot of
5:40political turmoil a lot of stuff's going
5:42on there so if you show up in the United
5:44States you're going to hear them a lot
5:45and it has to do with some weird
5:46political stuff that's been going on
5:48Georgia also has one of the most
5:49beautiful cities we have here in the
5:51United States Savannah number 40 Hawaii
5:54the Aloha state did you know aloha means
5:57hello and goodbye it's one of those
5:59words that have have several meanings
6:00just like dude and the f word Hawaii is
6:04in the middle Pacific Ocean and it is
6:05the other state that does not share a
6:08border with any other U.S state it is in
6:10the middle of the ocean that's why
6:11Hawaii is obviously another state that
6:14has amazing beaches its main industry is
6:17tourism and it's also where a lot of
6:18retirees that have a good amount of
6:20money go to spend their golden years
6:22most people think Hawaii only has like
6:25five to eight Islands Hawaii is actually
6:28made up of 137 Islands now eight of them
6:31are considered major islands and seven
6:33of the major islands have somewhat of a
6:35population one Island hasn't had any
6:37permanent residents since 1940. they
6:40also have 13 minor Islands which really
6:42don't have anyone living on them and a
6:44whole bunch of atolls reefs and rocks
6:46sticking out of the ocean that they
6:48consider islands and part of the
6:50Hawaiian chain number 39 Idaho Idaho is
6:54known as The Gem State and it is one of
6:56those places everyone's been moving to
6:58over the last decade remember how I said
7:00people are flooding out of California
7:01earlier a lot of them are going to Idaho
7:03now the United States is broken up into
7:06several different regions and there's
7:08one called the Pacific Northwest which
7:10has Washington Oregon and Idaho even
7:13though Idaho doesn't touch the Pacific
7:14Ocean Idaho's biggest city is Boise if
7:17you call it Boise it makes them angry
7:19it's Boise 38 Illinois Illinois is in
7:24the Upper Midwest and this is where they
7:25keep the big city of Chicago it's in the
7:28Northeast side of the state on Lake
7:29Michigan there's a lot of things going
7:31on in Illinois but all anyone really
7:34knows about Illinois it's Chicago number
7:3637 Indiana Indiana is mostly Farmland
7:40they have Indianapolis right in the
7:42middle of the state and that's where
7:43they have a big race every year actually
7:45they have a few races there at the
7:47Indianapolis Motor Speedway Indiana is
7:49college basketball if you like
7:51basketball you already know where
7:53Indiana is because a lot of the people
7:55there live and breathe college
7:57basketball or basketball in general they
7:59call themselves Hoosiers 36 Iowa Iowa's
8:03where we grow most of our corn well
8:05maybe not most of it we grow a lot of it
8:07it's just kind of known for their corn
8:08it's also kind of known for its boredom
8:10they do have a couple good sized cities
8:12Sioux City and Des Moines it's also
8:14considered one of the most boring States
8:16and if you're married and want to settle
8:18down and raise a family boring is
8:20sometimes good number 35 Kansas staying
8:24in the midwest we have Kansas they call
8:26themselves Jayhawks Kansas is a lot like
8:29Iowa it's you know great place to raise
8:31a family but it's kind of boring their
8:33biggest city isn't really even in their
8:35state it's Kansas City with a majority
8:38of Kansas City being in Missouri but
8:40that area on the Kansas side does have
8:43one of the best suburbs in the nation
8:45Overland Park Kansas they also have
8:48Topeka and Wichita but nobody knows
8:50where those really are even though they
8:52really are there I promise you Kansas is
8:55also where Dorothy got her start from
8:57the book and the movie The Wizard of
8:59laws number 34 Kentucky is a
9:03southeastern state that is bordered by
9:05the Ohio River to the North and the
9:07Appalachian Mountains to the east it's
9:09not a deep south state it is a Southern
9:11state it's not deep south though it's
9:13sort of like a border state between the
9:16Midwest and the South I've always found
9:19Kentucky to be a little strange in a few
9:21different ways they have some incredible
9:23universities but at the same time they
9:25always seem to show up in lists about
9:27the worst states for adult literacy it
9:29is also home to the Kentucky Derby which
9:32is held at Churchill Downs on the first
9:33Sunday in May this like a big event not
9:36just there for the entire country it's
9:38not just the race it's like a two-week
9:40festival for some reason people always
9:41seem to think that their state capital
9:43is Lexington it is not it's Frankfurt 33
9:47Louisiana Louisiana has a bunch of
9:49nicknames but the one that most people
9:51know it by is the Pelican State this is
9:53where you'll find cities like Baton
9:56Rouge and New Orleans it's also where
9:58the Mississippi River hands right before
10:00it flows into the Gulf of Mexico it's
10:02got a lot of history and a whole bunch
10:04of poverty keep that in mind if you
10:06decide to go visit 32 Maine Maine is a
10:10New England State it is the most
10:11Northeastern State we have here in the
10:13U.S Maine is known as the Pine Tree
10:16State and they got a lot of pine trees
10:18and a lot of open land they are ranked
10:2039th in size and 42nd in population
10:23their capital is Augusta and their
10:26largest city is Portland actually out
10:28here in Portland Oregon if you've never
10:29heard this before that is how we got the
10:31name Portland Oregon two businessmen
10:33from Back East decided they needed to
10:36name this little camp that it's set up
10:37around their trading post each wanted to
10:40name it after their Hometown they
10:41flipped a coin and the guy from Portland
10:43Maine won and he named it Portland
10:45Oregon we were a coin toss away from
10:48being Boston Oregon 31 Maryland most
10:51people not from the United States really
10:53don't know much about Maryland I mean
10:55even if you're from the United States
10:57you probably don't know much about it
10:58past this this is where Baltimore is if
11:01you look at the map Maryland and
11:02Delaware to a degree looks like they
11:04just kind of threw these states together
11:06as an afterthought maybe some landowner
11:09was all I want my own state so
11:11Pennsylvania New Jersey and Virginia
11:14gave a little peace each of their states
11:16like here take this land we're not using
11:18it and shut up Maryland is known as a
11:21Mid-Atlantic state that is got a whole
11:23bunch of waterways Coastline and the
11:26Chesapeake Bay the border of Maryland
11:28and the northern part is defined by the
11:31Potomac River and there's one section
11:33where the state is so thin up near
11:35Hancock that you could walk from West
11:37Virginia through Maryland into
11:39Pennsylvania in less than an hour if
11:42your gouts acting up might be two hours
11:44number 30 Massachusetts Massachusetts is
11:48where Boston is and where you'll find
11:50Harvard Harvard of course being an Ivy
11:52League school and considered by most to
11:55be one of the best in the nation as in
11:57the army with a guy from Boston and
11:59he'll we should say and I never
12:00understood why he's all Harvard the big
12:02lie I don't know I think it's a local
12:04thing I don't know but he did it in this
12:06country club voice it was like Harvard
12:08the big lie it was ridiculous
12:10Massachusetts isn't a terribly large
12:13State it's actually ranked 44th in the
12:15nation when it comes to population
12:16they're ranked 15th with about 7 million
12:19residents and they're second in the
12:21nation when it comes to median household
12:23income this state makes a lot of money
12:25even though it's not that big depending
12:27on the year their economy is usually in
12:30the top five for the United States
12:31always like number three four or five
12:33something like that so if you want to go
12:35to school here it's a good idea it's
12:37expensive and if you're looking to get a
12:38good paying job probably look here also
12:40and if you ever called a state keep in
12:42mind it's a commonwealth not a state
12:44there's a little bit of a difference
12:46nothing major in a lot of different
12:47things we say we have 50 states in
12:49reality we have a few that are
12:51commonwealths if you do move to
12:53Massachusetts keep in mind they have a
12:55very strange accent I shouldn't say
12:57strange it's just very noticeable
12:59especially if you're in the Boston area
13:0229 Michigan Michigan is known as the
13:05Great Lakes State The Wolverine state
13:07it's also known as The Mitten State the
13:09water Wonderland state or winter
13:11wonderland States got a lot of nicknames
13:13and it's home to what most people
13:14consider the worst major city in the
13:16United States Detroit the rural parts
13:18and small towns are great Detroit and
13:20flint and a couple other places just are
13:22really bad I did a whole video on how
13:24Detroit got to where it is today I'll
13:27leave a link down below Michigan is
13:28ranked 10th in population with about 10
13:31million residents and it's ranked 11th
13:33in size they have brutally cold Winters
13:35and nice Summers and springs if you
13:37could stand the mosquitoes 28 Minnesota
13:40Minnesota is a lot like Michigan
13:42probably a little bit colder and they
13:44don't have Detroit beautiful Summers and
13:46springs Winters and fall can be brutal
13:49but it is a beautiful state in the rural
13:52areas wonderful people in Minnesota 27
13:55Mississippi Mississippi is by most
13:58people's account the worst state in the
14:01United States they have the war first
14:02state capital of Jackson Mississippi and
14:05they lead the nation in so many things
14:07that are negative I don't know where to
14:09begin but probably the one that sticks
14:10out the most poverty that's right the
14:12Magnolia state has the worst poverty in
14:15the country if you don't need to go to
14:16Mississippi don't go to Mississippi 26
14:20Missouri Missouri is a state that is
14:22often overlooked it's pretty close to
14:24being the middle of the country and its
14:26two largest cities they have to share
14:28with other states Kansas city is in
14:30Missouri and it's in Kansas then you
14:32have St Louis Missouri with a metro area
14:34that goes into Illinois with East St
14:37Louis it does have one of my favorite
14:39places to go visit and that is Lake of
14:41the Ozarks it's right in the middle of
14:42the state 25 Montana if you're from
14:45another country and you want to see what
14:47the old west was like go to Montana it's
14:49the closest you're gonna get to how the
14:51old west was Wyoming's pretty close also
14:53they got a lot of open land and it's
14:55beautiful in most areas kind of got to
14:57be a tough person to live in Montana 24
15:00Nebraska Nebraska is is just like Kansas
15:03and Iowa boring what a great place to
15:06raise a family number 23 Nevada Nevada
15:09is not a great place to raise a family
15:10according to just about every survey
15:12that's ever been taken if you're not
15:14from the United States and you've never
15:15heard of Nevada it's where we keep Las
15:18Vegas Yes Las Vegas is the largest city
15:21well the metro area of Las Vegas is the
15:23major metro area in Nevada Nevada is a
15:26good sized State it's actually the
15:28seventh largest in the United States but
15:30it's 32nd when it comes to population
15:32that's because they only have a few
15:34Metro areas like Las Vegas Laughlin and
15:36Reno and the rest of the state is Desert
15:38that not many people would want to live
15:40in and not many people get the chance to
15:42live in it because most this state is
15:44owned by the federal government 22 New
15:46Hampshire New Hampshire is a great state
15:48I love New Hampshire it's right next to
15:50one of my favorite states which is
15:51Vermont these two states are very
15:53similar along with Maine because they
15:55are the safest states in the United
15:57States they're always like one two or
15:59three New Hampshire is beautiful and
16:00safe if you want to go there for college
16:01or relocate 21 New Jersey New Jersey you
16:06know it's a strange State the people
16:09there aren't really obnoxious and rude
16:11as they seem it's just the way they are
16:13they sort of remind me of Russians if
16:15you don't know the Russian language when
16:16you hear them speak you think they're
16:18angry at least from a western point of
16:20view New Jersey's like that too they
16:22sound like they're getting aggressive
16:23when really they're just talking to you
16:24New Jersey has some nice coastal areas
16:27and some really nice rural areas on the
16:29inside of the state but they have a lot
16:31of really bad big cities stay out of the
16:33big cities that's a great place to live
16:34number 20 New Mexico New Mexico is
16:38pretty close to Mississippi when it
16:40comes to Poverty New Mexico's got some
16:42problems and most of it stems from they
16:44just don't have a lot of jobs but if you
16:46like the desert it's hard to find one as
16:48beautiful as New Mexico 19. New York
16:51state New York is a very interesting
16:53State because most people not from the
16:55country don't realize that New York City
16:57is not the entire state New York City
16:59has about three quarters of the people
17:01of New York State feet but it only has
17:03about a fifth of the land it is known as
17:05the Empire State and it is a Melting Pot
17:07that's why most people coming from other
17:09countries one of the first places they
17:11hear they should move to is New York or
17:13New York City you will find every Creed
17:16race sexual orientation religion mental
17:21disorder and profession in New York 18
17:24North Carolina North Carolina is where
17:27the Wright brothers flew for the first
17:29time they say it was Kitty Hawk but
17:30really it was a place called Kill Devil
17:32Hill North Carolina has some amazing
17:34cities like Raleigh Durham Charlotte and
17:37of course not a city but they have the
17:38Outer Banks which is beautiful it is
17:40known as the Tar Heel State I'd get into
17:42it but there's several different reasons
17:44they call it that and it's just a really
17:46long story look it up it's interesting
17:4817 North Dakota North Dakota is a
17:51strange State it's one of our most
17:52northern states and it's really never
17:54caught on they have a couple places that
17:56have some population but for the most
17:58part it's a state that's got a lot of
18:01open land now I say it's never really
18:03caught on there's never been a major
18:04migration there they've had little
18:06spurts when they started working the oil
18:08fields some years back but it's never
18:10been a sustained migration North Dakota
18:13is known for that open land and brutal
18:16Winters
18:1716. Ohio the Buckeye state is a state
18:21that's been on decline for about 30
18:23years now Ohio is home to one of the
18:25most depressing cities in the United
18:27States which is Cleveland which is also
18:30home to my favorite football team Ohio
18:31only has four or five major cities you
18:34got Cleveland Columbus Cincinnati Toledo
18:37and Dayton and of them only Columbus is
18:40the one you want to live in if you like
18:42football it's a great place to live
18:43they're big on college football and the
18:45NFL they actually have the NFL Hall of
18:47Fame in Canton Ohio 15 Oklahoma Oklahoma
18:50is right above Texas and if you talk to
18:53someone from Oklahoma they say they're
18:55just like Texas and if you talk to
18:57someone from Texas they'll say Oklahoma
18:58wishes it was a lot like Texas this
19:01comedian I saw years ago said that he
19:03used to live in Oklahoma and they should
19:05change their welcome sign at the state
19:07line instead of Welcome to Oklahoma The
19:09Sooner State it should just be a picture
19:11of a cop going nothing to see here folks
19:14keep moving yeah Oklahoma is not the
19:16greatest place number 14 Oregon Oregon's
19:20a state that used to be a lot better for
19:22many years it was one of the most moved
19:24to States it's beautiful outdoor
19:26activities amazing forests mountains
19:28lakes River streams we got water
19:30everywhere these days we got problems
19:32everywhere and most those problems
19:34everywhere are everywhere around
19:35Portland Oregon the largest city in the
19:38state the rest of the state though is
19:39beautiful and you can't deny that lucky
19:42number 13 is Pennsylvania one of my
19:45favorite States Pennsylvania is in the
19:47northeastern part of the United States
19:49right next to Ohio Maryland New York and
19:51New Jersey a little bit it also has a
19:53little Shoreline of Lake Erie
19:55Pennsylvania shares a lot of the things
19:57I love about Oregon there's water
19:59everywhere forests Creeks rivers lakes
20:01everything just a beautiful state
20:04outside the cities Pennsylvania has two
20:06major cities you've probably heard of
20:08Philadelphia and Pittsburgh and it has a
20:10handful of pretty decent smaller towns
20:13or cities Harrisburg Allentown Scranton
20:16Scranton's not the greatest but still
20:17and it's also home to my favorite small
20:19town in America Honesdale number 12
20:22Rhode Island or little Roadie that's its
20:25nickname it is the smallest state we
20:27have it is ranked 50th in size meaning
20:30it is the absolute smallest it's also
20:3245th in population but when it comes to
20:35population density they're second in the
20:37nation Rhode Island's a great place to
20:39be if you like seafood their other
20:41nickname which is their official
20:43nickname is the ocean state number 11
20:45South Carolina over the last handful of
20:48years South Carolina has kind of grown
20:49on me they've got some great cities and
20:52a lot of history Charleston's a perfect
20:54example most people just think about
20:56Myrtle Beach because it's a great place
20:57to go on vacation Myrtle Beach ain't
20:59that great the beaches are cool the city
21:01not so much much Colombia is okay and so
21:03is Greenville but if I was moving to
21:05South Carolina I would definitely choose
21:07Charleston number 10 South Dakota South
21:10Dakota is a lot like North Dakota just
21:13completely different they actually have
21:14terrain features really the only thing
21:16they have in common is a border and the
21:19word Dakota South Dakota is where you
21:21find Mount Rushmore which is that
21:24Monument carved into a Mountainside of
21:26president's heads if you're not from the
21:28United States those heads are Abraham
21:30Lincoln George Washington Thomas
21:32Jefferson and Teddy Roosevelt they got
21:34room for more heads but nobody can
21:36really agree on who else should go up
21:37there I think there's strong Arguments
21:39for Reagan FDR and Kennedy South Dakota
21:43is a great state if you like doing
21:45things outdoors number nine Tennessee
21:47Tennessee is another amazing state with
21:50a lot of great history it's got some
21:51pretty cool cities too Knoxville
21:53Nashville Memphis Memphis ain't that
21:56great you gotta stay out of it but Beale
21:57Street's pretty cool it's kind of
21:59dangerous the rest of the state is
22:00pretty good number great Texas Texas is
22:03another state that's been built on oil
22:05these days it's just all around energy
22:07State oil still plays a big part in so
22:10does finance a lot of banking and stuff
22:12like that goes on in Texas it's not all
22:14cowboy hats and cowboy boots well at
22:17least not cowboy hats cowboy boots it's
22:19like everyone in Texas has to own a pair
22:21Texas is one of the most moved to States
22:23we have right now has been for about a
22:25decade number seven Utah Utah is a state
22:28that was pretty much founded by Mormon
22:30settlers I know they were heading west I
22:32don't know really why they stopped in
22:34Utah other than their leader decided it
22:36was a good place I don't know if he
22:38confused the Great Salt Lake with the
22:40Pacific Ocean I know they have different
22:42stories but I think he got here and said
22:43there it is the Pacific Ocean a couple
22:45years later someone went all the way
22:47around the lake and said that's not the
22:48Pacific Ocean and I'm sure he played it
22:50off with I meant to do that Utah is a
22:52great state to live in just keep in mind
22:54there is a serious Mormon influence here
22:57to this day I don't want to say they
22:58control the state but they kind of
23:00control the state number six Vermont
23:02Vermont is another one of my favorite
23:04States it's up there next to New
23:06Hampshire and Maine and it is one of the
23:08three safest states we have like I said
23:10earlier every year there's a new study
23:12and they're either one two or three I
23:14think Maine right now is the safest
23:16Vermont's number two New Hampshire is
23:17number three Vermont is beautiful and
23:20safe and a great place to live gotta
23:23deal with some pretty harsh Winters but
23:24other than that it's a great place to
23:26live number five Virginia Virginia is
23:28one of those states that you always
23:29think is about to have a big boom you
23:32know and people just start moving there
23:33I mean it's a steady trickle but never
23:36that heavy migration like Idaho Texas
23:38and Colorado have seen great
23:40universities and a lot of work number
23:43four Washington State now if you're not
23:45from this country you may not know we
23:46have Washington DC which is the
23:48headquarters or the capital of the
23:50United States that's on the East Coast
23:52Washington state is where you'll find
23:55Seattle and that's on the western side
23:57of the state if you take Alaska out of
23:59the equation it is the most Northwestern
24:01State we have right up there against
24:02Canada number three West Virginia West
24:05Virginia is just a little west of
24:08Washington DC and it's kind of north and
24:10west of Virginia
24:12it's right there in the middle of the
24:13country amongst all these beautiful
24:15mountains it's a beautiful state but the
24:17state's fallen on hard times since the
24:19coal industry started fading away the
24:22people are great the land is beautiful
24:23they just have some problems about
24:26employment poverty and they were one of
24:28the worst hit by the opioid crisis it is
24:31one of the cheapest states to live in if
24:33you could bring a job like a remote
24:35worker or you're retired this is a great
24:37place to save some money and get ahead
24:39it just comes with some challenges
24:41number two Wisconsin Wisconsin is a
24:44great state and in my opinion probably
24:46one of the top three states to raise a
24:48family in the entire State it's like
24:50that I mean they don't have any crime
24:52outside of Milwaukee which is their
24:54biggest city I mean little crime nothing
24:56major drinking and driving is probably
24:58one of their biggest crimes there
24:59Wisconsin is beautiful very rural and a
25:02lot of places to fish and Hike sit on a
25:05dock and drink and stare at the water
25:10all right we got one more to go if
25:12you're looking to move to another state
25:13there's a really cool website called
25:15home and money they could help you get
25:17in contact with a real estate agent in
25:19any part of the country you want to move
25:21to they also have some other things like
25:22mortgage calculator and things like that
25:24on the website to help you if you're
25:26looking to buy a new home all right on
25:27to number one and number one Wyoming
25:31Wyoming is a very interesting state
25:32they're a lot like Montana with the
25:34whole cowboy rough living type thing
25:36it's a big state actually ranked 10th in
25:39the nation but they don't have many
25:40people they are the least populated
25:42state they come in 50th they only have
25:45576
25:46000 residents probably a little bit more
25:48than that or a little bit less that's
25:50the 2020 numbers my understanding is
25:52they gained some in 2021 but lost some
25:55in 2022. Wyoming is surrounded by Utah
25:57Colorado Nebraska South Dakota and
26:00Montana most of the state is flat except
26:03on the western side of the state where
26:04you'll find the Rocky Mountains Wyoming
26:06is another state that has a few
26:07nicknames the equality State that's the
26:09official one they're also known as the
26:11cowboy state and big Wyoming if you
26:13don't like living around a bunch of
26:14people and you like the outdoors
26:16Wyoming's a solid choice
26:19all right that's today's video hope you
26:21guys enjoyed it hope you got some
26:22information of it now go out have a
26:24great day be nice to each other
