Would you like to trade a region of your state with a region of a neighbor state? (chapel, bars)

Yes, I could go with that.

The northern half of the Nature Coast, most of the Forgotten Coast, and the Big Bend Coast.

You realise the "square shapes" and "natural shapes" exist for different reasons, right? Btw the eastern boundaries of the Dakotas have a "natural shape" to them. The problem is there's less rivers and less a reason to divide with rivers out west. Why make squiggly lines when they're not needed? Kentucky's squiggly boundary to the north isn't just random lines, it follows a river. There's no need to divide the state with a river in rugged and dry Wyoming.

Make the Texas panhandle touch Kansas and Colorado.

Memphis no offense to Memphis but they have a big drug, poverty and race strife still.

The irony of this is that the Texas panhandle DID touch Kansas and Colorado until 1854

Northern CA coast with the Hawaiian coast! Hate the cold summers and cold ocean along the coast here.

No. There's nothing really worth trading with neighboring states. One area that comes to mind is already matched (and exceeded) by what is already here.

That'd be great. Louisiana has all that (sinking) coastline and no real beaches to show for it.

Houston would be a better fit in my opinion with the humidity and Cajuns there already. If that were the case, Louisiana would be a much more desirable place to be.

I'd give up North Louisiana for that. Hardly a fair trade and more wishful thinking though

Must have read my mind.

I'd include Western NY, Central NY, North Country.

NYC and the Capital Region can go do whatever else, lol.

Washington would be so much nicer if we could take Northwest Oregon...

...and give them southeast Washington.
