What (if any) are the states that boarder your home state that you've never stepped foot in? For the sake of discussion, we'll consider crossing a state line visiting. I live in Illinois and I've never been to Missouri. I hadn't been to Iowa until recently. Even then I didn't actually go anywhere in Iowa. I missed the exit and accidentally crossed the Mississippi into Iowa. I've been to/driven through Kentucky three times. Been to Wisconsin, Indiana, and Michigan numerous times. Are there any other people who've never been to a neighboring state or am I just weird?
I left Alaska and Hawaii out because they're not a part of the contiguous US.
I realize I spelled Maryland wrong in the poll. Sorry, guys!

Never been to Vermont or Massachusetts. I'm not really sure why I've never been to Boston TBH. It's a really easy bus ride to make. As soon as the legal weed stores open in Massachusetts though I'll definitely have to make a visit!
Edit: and if I include Canadian provinces that border New York, then I've never been to Quebec either.
I live in Texas and I have been to all of them.Texas borders Louisiana,Oklahoma,Arkansas, and New Mexico.Never have been to Old Mexico.I have been to Oklahoma and Arkansas a lot of times.I love to vacation in the Land of Enchantment so I have been there lots of times too.
Missouri is one of the only two states I believe that border 8 other states and I've been to all of them. Kansas I go to all the time since it's so close but I've also been to Nebraska, Iowa, Illinois, Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, and Oklahoma.
I live in Rhode Island and probably every single person in Rhode Island has been to both our bordering states: Massachusetts and Connecticut.
I'm originally from New York and I've been to all its bordering states: Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, plus the two Canadian provinces, Ontario and Quebec.
I went to college in Illinois and I've been to all its bordering states: Indiana, Wisconsin, Iowa, Missouri and Kentucky (though Kentucky was kind of on a technicality, just to use the Cincinnati airport).
But! I lived in California for three whole months, and while I've been to Arizona and Nevada, I have never been to Oregon! So there's your answer: Oregon.

Fun fact, Rhode Island and New York also border each other.
As for me, I been to all of New York's neighbors at one time or another - New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ontario, Quebec, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island. In the case of Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Connecticut, I have been there numerous times.
