STATE LOCATION

                                                         By Ted Peterson

 

This web site is set up to show when the state joined the US, coast line, how wide, and how tall of all 50 US states.

 

Column #1 is the year the state became a state.  Column #2 is the state number.  Column #3 is the miles the state goes from east to west.  Column #4 is the miles from top to bottom.  Column  #5 is the miles of coast line (if they have a coast line.)
