- Missouri: Grand-looking old rowbuildings in St. Louis near the river. MLK Boulevard in St. Louis. Barbecue sauce.

- Iowa: The University of Iowa with its famous writing program.

- Indiana: Cars.

- New Jersey: Jersey City viewed across New York harbor. Bruce Springsteen. Monmouth Hills.

- Connecticut: New Haven Green. The fact that the state is shaped like a whale.
