The masters is played in Augusta Georgia not Maine

I love when James says "size isn't everything", and Millie gives him a little "bless your heart!" pat on the shoulder.

Life long Alabama resident here. Racism is grossly exaggerated. I'm white my ex-wife is black. I will die here

I’m from New Jersey and the image it showed was actually New York. That’s just across the River in probably Hudson county or something like that. There’s a running joke here that New Jersey is really only real estate for people who work in New York City and Philadelphia to live in Edit: was brought to my attention that that image was actually Brooklyn but my point still stands, you can see New York City from a large part of Eastern New Jersey

Wisconsin resident here! It's a beautiful state and often ignored and overlooked! We have so many gorgeous state parks, Amish communities, hiking trails, bluffs, lake Michigan with many islands to explore, caves, waterfalls, and our very popular Door County Penninsula that is so popular with tourists. And of course, our amazing dairy products (most notably our cheeses), beers, bratwurst, and cranberries! Not to mention out northern midwest kindness and hospitality.

Walmart just announced they were moving out of Portland Oregon due to uncontrolled shoplifting. Target also left and so are many others. Even Starbucks isn't happy.

I’m from Mississippi. I love it here. Mississippi has a lot of stereotypes that it can’t shake. It is not as prejudiced or as ignorant as people and tv makes us out to be. We have some of the nicest, warmest people you will ever meet. We are home to some of the greatest music ever heard. We are the home of rock and blues music and many great authors. Just avoid the big cities, they have the most crime.

That was the Empire State Building in the New Jersey clip. The shot was from across the Hudson looking towards Manhattan

I live in New Orleans, and I can say this... Mississippi is not far away. I've been all throughout the state, and this guy is selling it short by miles. It's beautiful.

Detroit is not as bad as it was 20 years ago! It has almost done a complete 180! I live 10 minutes from there, my husband worked down there, and both of my kids currently work there. There are some bad areas, but the heart of Detroit is beautiful! The museum, The DIA (Detroit Institute of Arts) was just named the best museum in the country!

If you wanted to learn more about individual states. I saw that Geography King has a good series of state profiles. He has done 19 states so far.

im 65 and i have a few favorites : i was born n raised in Iowa for 42yrs ,lived in seattle washington 2yrs, oklahoma 3yrs , colorado 1 yr, south dakota 2 yrs, and live in new mexico now 15yrs . i think no matter what state your in you can find beauty and something to do .😎🥰🌵

Fun fact: When Michigan was seeking Statehood, it claimed the NW corner of Ohio belonged to Michigan. It turned out to be part of Ohio after it was surveyed again. As part of the deal, Michigan got the upper peninsula. The city being fought over was Toledo.

I’m from Mississippi we have some of the greatest people in the entire country. We are also the state they created rock ‘n’ roll and we are the heart of America’s music.

As a lifelong resident of Wyoming, we like meeting newcomers to the state so long as you have a good head on your shoulders and a good heart in your chest. We're very proud of our state and don't wanna see it get overrun by people who don't care about keeping our state as pristine as possible. The weather can be tough to get used to however, the southern part of the state gets very windy, the summers are very hot, the winters are very cold. Spring and Fall are the best times to visit. Thanks for the video! It's nice seeing people care enough to not only sit through a long video, but actively listen and have thoughts of their own on them!

Alphabetical Order

California is, indeed, called the Golden State because of the Gold Rush of 1849. The miners who swarmed into California that year were called the "forty-niners," which later became the name of the San Francisco football team. People mistakenly believe the Golden Gate Bridge was named for the discovery of gold; in fact, it crosses the Golden Gate strait, which got its name in 1846 from John C. Fremont, who felt that the strait was "a golden gate to trade with the Orient."

South East Tennessee here. I was born in Michigan and have lived in Alaska, Maine, New Mexico, Nevada and California. Also lived in Germany for 4 years. I moved from California to Tennessee in 2013. I am at home here in South East Tennessee . It’s beautiful, friendly and I love it. South East Tennessee and East Tennessee are different from the Middle and West Tennessee. East Tennessee used to be its own State of Friendsville, we became part of West Virginia but the became part of Tennessee. Tennessee was the home of Daniel Boone.

As a resident of Mississippi, I can say it isn't as bad as people tend to think it is. The state has just been trapped in a never ending cycle of poverty that has terrorized the state for decades. Mississippi has a very poor education system, which leads to low test scores which leads to a very low number of jobs and industry being brought into the state, which leads to poor funding for the school system, which leads to lower test grades. Other than that, I would say that the citizens of Mississippi are some of the kindest people you will meet in America, the state is known as the hospitality state.

When you saw Vermont and commented on the little houses going up the hill... You see that EVERYWHERE in the U.S. where there are hills. Little roads with houses up and down hills. The big thing going for New York (outside of the city), Vermont, and New Hampshire is the foliage - there are so many deciduous trees that turn GORGEOUS colors in the fall. Also - maple syrup making is huge in Vermont and New Hampshire.

Also - New York is BEAUTIFUL outside of New York City. There is some GORGEOUS landscape in New York - very lush and gently mountainous.

Augusta, Georgia. Not Maine but in Georgia.

Being born and raised Minnesotan I can say our winters are brutal. Another video similar to this one on what each state is best and worst at had Minnesota as having the worst winters.

Raleigh (capital of NC) and Durham are two separate cities in North Carolina. The airport that serves both cities is called Raleigh Durham Airport (RDU). Add in the town of Chapel Hill and those three make up what is known as The Triangle.

I live in Ohio and he didn't mention that we have The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland. I don't really know why he left out Nashville, Tennessee because that's where you go if you want to make it big in country music. Ohio is also known for being The Birthplace of Aviation. The Wright brothers were born here. Actually, only one was, Orville. During WW2, people came from out of state to get work in the rubber factories making tires and we, also, had Government jobs manufacturing parts for war planes. Akron used to be known as "the rubber capital of the world". Ohio has more than what the guy was making it out to be. A lot of the reason people have been moving out is because the rubber companies have closed and being sent overseas. Cleveland had Iron factories which produced Iron and Iron products. Those jobs have been outsourced, too. When jobs leave, so do people.

When I lived in Seattle (my favorite city), I drove to St Paul Minnesota for work. The raw beauty of Wyoming was awesome. It had some of the most beautiful landscapes that I have ever seen.

93% of New Jersey is quiet suburbs of New York City and Philadelphia. There's tons of farmland, protected woodlands and stunning coastline. It sounds like this guy flew into Newark airport once and decided the whole State was that. New Jerseans speak quickly and cut straight to the point as a form politeness. Things move quickly, we're just trying to save you time as a way of being considerate.

Michigan is one of the most beautiful states which most people don’t realize, so it’s a nice hidden gem for us who live here 😊

I'm from Mississippi. It's not as bad as he's saying it is. I love it here. Ya, there's poverty, but that's everywhere you go. People are friendly and there's job opportunities cropping up by the day.

One of my professors told me some stories of traveling through Mississippi to see the musical historical sites. Hard times traveling out there in that weather sometimes, and heavily affected by deep entrenched poverty (meaning sometimes decent, usable facilities are hard to come by).

The look on Millie's face, along with the consoling pat on the shoulder when he said "size isn't everything" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Wow he's really got his opinions, he showed or told, nothing about Washington State, which is actually a gorgeous state.

Every state has something beautiful to check out.

Kind of disappointed he went with the pro football hall of fame as the thing to say about Ohio. I feel like there are way better things here, in addition to the Pro Football hall of fame, Ohio also has the Rock and Roll hall of fame. The two top rated amusement parks for the past several in the US in Cedar Point and King’s Island (yes, higher rated than Universal, Disney, or any Six Flags. Only Wonderland in Canada is a higher rated amusement park in North America, sorry a bit of an amusement park need 😅). The National Museum of the US Air Force. Probably some other stuff too, but those are my favorites lol.

Fun fact - the actress who played Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz (Judy Garland) lived about 60 miles from my house here in Northeastern Minnesota. I found her & her family when I was researching my son's family tree - Judy Garland is my son's long lost cousin! Both of his paternal grandparents grew up in the Grand Rapids area where Judy's family lived.

Beesleys, in case you're interested, the NASA spot in Huntsville is Marshall Space Flight Center. Maine is also the home of the north end of the Appalachian Trail, which starts way down in GA. Michigan is also the only state composed of 2 peninsulas--Upper and Lower.

Depends where in Mississippi. I live on coast and it’s been approving dramatically. Cheap to live here too.

The Masters is in Augusta, Ga. Capital of Maine is Augustus. I have lived all over. Albuquerque, NM has great weather. All four seasons, none too extreme.

22:00. JAMES!!! New Jersey is 1 mile from Manhattan!! The Statue of Liberty is on Star Island that is shared by both New Jersey & New York--hahaha.

Interesting, he started off saying that NY isn't just NYC, then proceeded to only talk about NYC 😂

I guess if you’re from a big metropolitan area, Iowa would be boring. But I’m a native, and I can assure you that there’s plenty to enjoy here. Des Moines has so many good restaurants, there’s a small amusement park in Altoona, which is nestled up against the north east corner of Des Moines. Plus there are recreational areas and so many other good restaurants spread out over the state it’s ridiculous. Granted, you might have to look a little harder, or drive a little farther, but there’s no shortage of things to do here😊

I lived in Mississippi and yes, it can be that bad. There are simply better places to visit (and live) in the country. And yes, that was NYC in New Jersey and yes, its right next to the city.

This guy always slams Arkansas there really isn't a racism problem here Eastern Arkansas is flat west is beautiful love y'all's videos by the way

I'm from Wisconsin. I moved away (to Arkansas and Arizona), but came back home as soon as I could. Wisconsin has a reputation for being only farmland, but we are so much more than that (though our cheese is the best in the country). Honestly, Door Country is probably one of the most beautiful places in Wisconsin, Especially in Autumn.

I am a resident from Wisconsin, Milwaukee. My favorite City and State of course. We are neighbors to Chicago, Illinois which I also love.

Augusta, Georgia is the site of the Masters Golf Tournament. Maine's capital is also named Augusta.

I have lived in Oklahoma all my life and it is beautiful! Lovely lakes, mountains, forests, and great people!❤

I live in Huntsville Alabama and it is a wonderful place to live. More literal rocket scientists per capita then any other place in the world. Very high tech city

I’m from Mississippi. It’s always considered worse than it is, I mean it’s no paradise, but most people who move here from outside the south and East seem pretty happy moving to this state. A majority of our problems are on economic productivity. We used to be fairly wealthy but when American cotton and other southern agriculture production got outsourced, it just caused our wealth to collapse and many beautiful towns and cities to also fall. We still have Oxford and Ole Miss though and it should always be in the top 10 for partying just due to the fun mixed with safety. We also as a state produce some fairly famous people as well, Elvis, Brett Farve, Eli and Archie Manning, William Faulkner the list goes on.

Georgia is awesome, especially Atlanta. Lots of cool stuff to do there. The Pocono Mountains in Pennsylvania is a really awesome place to go. Texas has a lot of anime companies in it.

Something major they missed about Kentucky: The Bourbon! This is the birthplace of Bourbon... and much like Champagne, you aren't making REAL Bourbon unless you're making it in Kentucky. The Bourbon Trail will take you through some beautiful backcountry (with sometimes questionable roads, depending on which distillery you're visiting).

New York and New Jersey border each other. The tall building in the background at 21:54 is the Empire State Building in NYC. Yes, you can see NYC from parts of New Jersey.

There is a rich history associated with states’ identities. Indiana is called the Hoosier state because of a common greeting by early settlers there. When they heard a knock on the cabin door they would say “Who’s here?” The people became associated with this phrase and became referred to as Hoosiers. You should take a look at why states are referred to by these unique identities. Tennessee for example is called the Volunteer state because of its residents’ over representation in the military. Oklahoma is the Sooner State, North Carolina is the Tarheel state. And so on…

Hey James and Millie, as far as Atlanta, not only is Atlanta the largest city in Georgia, it's also the state capitol of Georgia

The Masters is played in Augusta, Georgia

I am from N.E. (Massachusetts) I have traveled to most states and lived in a few...There are pro's and con's in all...that being said I love my Country and would be glad to live in any state!

James has all the wrong stereotypes about the South: 1. They're not all farmers. The Midwest actually has more farmers and farmland (Nebraska, Iowa, Illinois, etc. 2. Cowboys are more related to "Western" states like Montana, Wyoming, and Colorado. Texas is weird in that it's half Western and half Southern. 3. Ranches. I'm taking this reference from another video where he thought Tennessee was full of ranches even though it's very mountainous and forested. The Great Plains area like Kansas, Nebraska, and of course parts of Texas are known for ranches.

That guy shit all over the State of Ohio. He's totally wrong. Cleveland is not a 'depressing place', it's a wonderful place, right on Lake Erie, and between the cities he mentioned, Columbus is the last on the list as far as I'm concerned. In any case, Ohio, we gave light and flight to the world.

The rest of Illinois is used to being forgotten...I'm 6 hours away from Chicago and live in Illinois.

A lot of college and professional sports teams are named because of where they play. For example the San Francisco 49'ers are named for the 1849 gold rush that made San Francisco a major city. The Minnesota Twins baseball team is named after the TWIN cities of Minneapolis and St Paul. The Philadelphia Eagles were named after the national bird because that's where the Declaration of Independence was signed and the Philadelphia 76'ers basketball team was named after the year 1776, the year America declared its independence.

I have driven across Wyoming over a thousand times during my career. I can tell you that it’s very beautiful and in my opinion underrated.

A point that irritates me. Delaware is not the first State. It was the first to ratify the Constitution, but the Constitution did not come into effect until 9 States had ratified it. Therefore, Delaware is in a 9-way tie for first.

One thing I have noticed with the creator whose video you reacted to is that he seems to value more urban and suburban experiences over rural experiences when describing and ranking States. I am from Louisiana but have spent time in a lot of U.S. states. Most of the ones that this guy says to avoid or says are boring are my favorites. It all depends on what you value. If you want to be within a short drive of the closest shopping and restaurants, his lists are ok. If you value a more rural experience, not so much.

The Masters golf tournament is played in April in Augusta Georgia.

I'm from north Mississippi. It's not good from the outside looking in, but I've lived a pretty great life here.

Being from Colorado, I don't think you get much of an idea of what it is like. It is the same for many of the other states. After all many people think that we are like South Park.

Nope it's not that bad, in fact the literacy rate in Mississippi is way higher than New York and California. As for poverty, the delta is a very poor area of the state.

Mississippi is easy to spell especially when you have the old song/saying for it "M I Crooked Letter Crooked Letter I Crooked Letter Crooked Letter I Humpback Humpback I" lol

Wyoming is called The Equality State because it was the first state to give women the right to vote.

From West Virginia. Our State is absolutely beautiful, the kindest people that will give the shirts off their back to y’all, but, yes, the opioid crises and drug use that has over ran WV in sad. We’re a military family and my husband joined when we were 18 and newly married. 24 years later, I don’t recognize my home town any longer. Sad. 😢

Loved in Chicago for a year ! Hated it! Now I won’t even drive near it when we are heading from Michigan to California to see our daughter!

The master's golf course is in Agusta Georgia

Hey man Tennessee is a complex state and everyone loves hating on Memphis, but culturally Memphis has given the world Holiday Inns, On time delivery with Federal Express and most of what accounts for the worlds popular modern music with Blues, Rhythm and Blues music, BBQ, Rock and Roll music, and soul music. We are known around the world for that, and Nashville is known for country music, and recently they have become a well known and extremely popular American city too, Knoxville is not as well known but it has held a World's Fair and has one of the nations largest university American football programs along with Chattanooga, which he did not mention being known for its jazz scene with Bessie Smith. Again, this guy could be a lot more informative if he was not so negative but negativity sells online. Come visit our state anytime we will feed you well from the Mississippi River to the Appalachian Mountains and don't let negative people deter you from visiting where you want.

Arkansas is the only state with a publicly accessible diamond mine.

The buildings you were commenting on in New Jersey were in fact in Manhattan, NY, NY. Jersey City, NJ is just across the Hudson River from NYC. The northern parts of New Jersey are basically a part of the NYC metro area, like western Connecticut. Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty park are essentially in New Jersey

Augusta golf tourney is in Georgia.

The Master's Tournament is held in Augusta, Georgia

Shout out to Pennsylvania! I live 14 miles out side of Pittsburgh, and out of the big cities, ours is pretty nice! Great video!

I'm from Missouri but I live at the very bottom of the bootheal. It's on the border of Arkansas. It's a very small town population of 500 people

I live near Wyoming and drive through there quite frequently due to a variety of reason (Family multiple times a year, and Yellowstone at least once a year) and depending on when you go it can be quite nice or not quite nice to drive through it. There is a window during late spring/early summer where the grasses are super green and is nice to drive through, but for good portions of the year you just drive through dead brown endless grass and shrubs. That being said there is a lot of cool areas that break the norm of that. There's a pleasant little canyon in the middle of the state, some mountains in the SE, and then there's all the mountains to the NW (Yellowstone area) and that area seems to be very green for a good portion of the spring and summer, and is, obviously, wonderful.

This narrator throws a lot of shade, especially on the poverty issue. I have traveled to many places with poverty and I have to tell you that they were some of the places where I have received the warmest welcome. The people living in those areas may not have much but they are so willing to share what they have with you. I have never gone without being offered a meal, a ride, and good conversation. This guy needs to open his mind a wee bit...or a good bit. Please research these places on your own. I would hate for you to come to the States and miss out on some beautiful people and beautiful places because someone skewed your perception of a place. My two cents, sitting here in "political upheaval" in Georgia while I scratch my head pondering what the hell was he talking about. I, obviously, take exception.

Hello from North Dakota. It's a balmy 8 degrees Fahrenheit here right now (-3 wind chill) . Pretty nice day because the wind's only 22 mph.

Augusta, Georgia is where the Masters is held.

It's Augusta,Maine however the golf tournament is in Augusta, Georgia and Florida has St. Augustine

The Masters Golf Tournament is played in Augusta Georgia.

I'm from Montana, I feel slighted by this video.

19:04 the Mississippi River starts up here in northern Minnesota. Here's how I learned how to spell Mississippi as a kid - this might help you spell it. M - I - crooked letter - crooked letter - I - crooked letter - crooked letter - I - humpback - humpback - I 😉

The orange California Poppy - the State Flower - contributes to the description as "The Golden State."

New Jersey borders New York city. Many people who work in NYC live in NJ. Millie was right about NJ remindering her of NY.

Georgia is called the peach state because they grow a lot of peaches

California being sunny all the time is a myth. California is a lot more than the Southern California beaches and deserts. But since LA is the largest city everyone assumes all of California is like that. But it is very big and quite diverse.

This video is so wrong about Cleveland. Cleveland gets a bad rap but honestly, it’s probably my favorite city that I’ve been to. There’s a lot to do if you like museums, lots of great restaurants, my favorite concert venue (HOB Cleveland), and it’s pretty easy to get around, traffic isnt usually ever too bad compared with a lot of other cities. Plus it’s on the Great Lakes which IMO is the most beautiful part of the country.

No the Masters is in Agusta Georgia

As a Floridian with parents from Cleveland and Detroit, I still have a connection to those states, which I think is awesome. I loved going to Cleveland in the summer and the carride through the smokies is something I'll never forget.

I love his casual “southern states are racist”.. I’m guessing he’s not from the south.

You gotta remember this is only his opinion. Oklahoma is where the landrush was. And it has alot of Native Americans here. Lawton was the end of the trail of the trail of tears.

He got many things wrong about many states. I’m only going to talk about Maryland because that is where I’m from. Maryland is called the America in miniature. We have the Atlantic Ocean on the east side, mountains on the west side and just about every other typography in between. Maryland & Virginia where supposed to give land for the nations capital, Washington, D.C. Virginia took there land back at the last moment. It is a beautiful state. We also have many buildings that house our Federal government. We have some of the best schools in the country. Most of the people in central part of the state work for the federal government. If you ever want to come visit, let me know.

I'm from Texas and I've been to 10 States. Texas of course, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, Washington, and Oregon. I have to say all of the states that I've been to are just so beautiful. But my favorite state is Utah. But that's just out of the states that I've been to I would like to visit the other 40 states. I also want to visit DC.

Augusta is in Georgia. Augusta is the Capital of Maine. Maine has 2 seasons, the 4th of July and winter. Not much time for golf in Maine but you can't get there from here.

The length of this video means that each state gets about 30 seconds. Of course this information is a gross over-simplification, and doesn't do most states justice. Every state is beautiful in places, and every state has advantages. The country is gorgeous and thrilling, but naturally I love my home city of St. Louis, Missouri. It is naturally beautiful, just full of trees and greenery, and has great universities and sports teams. Treat yourself to a view of the St. Louis Riverfront--complete with the Arch.
