[BrooklynJo]

Ironically I made the same title thread on here years ago and it got a good amount of responses

Anyway
NY
1.) New Jersey
2.) Florida
3.) Pennsylvania
4.) CT
^^^ these are the main 4 you see in nyc every single day.
For 5th place I will put Massachusetts

other common plates are Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina, and Georgia.

I see California plates every day too.

Can’t forget the Canadian plates

Being that DC is so small I barely see their plates outside of DC. I’ve seen a few in nyc with my friend being one of them (she is from DC) but yea I rarely see those plates

As someone who drives to and from Jersey a lot. I notice that nyc has much more Jersey plates than Jersey has NY plates.

For example I’ve been on several blocks in nyc where I saw more cars NJ plates than NYC. But in Jersey I’ve never seen such a thing where New York plates take over a block or a garage

(big gap)

2. New York
3. Delaware
4. Maryland (honestly it often feels more like #3)

(another big gap)

5. Hmm, probably Virginia, Connecticut, or Massachusetts. I'll go with Virginia.

Weird that Delaware is in the metro and isn’t number 2

On the Oregon Coast.

1. California
2. Washington
3. Idaho
4. British Columbia
5. Tossup. Almost any other state or province. Alaska is pretty common in the wintertime.

also, occasionally, Florida, Tennessee, Ohio, and even occasionally Alaska and Hawaii.

Interestingly enough, over 10 years later, your top 5 isn't much different from what I see in Stillwater now. All the same states still, though bottom 3 by a different order. Yes, Texas by a huge margin. Also seldom see the lower ranked states. Some state license plates are not easy to read, though.

Yeah, sometimes I wonder why there are more NY plates, but if you think about it, it makes sense. Delaware is a relatively low population state, and many of the people who actually live that far out end up working in Wilmington. Wilmington is actually a relatively strong economic hub for a city its size. Many companies are HQ'd there because of the tax incentives. So, we don't have a huge commuter base from Deleware. That, and in regards to which state transplants in our metro are from, NY has got to be the #1 or #2 state.

Probably Maine. Ohio has a reciprocity agreement with Maine for truck license plates, and Maine plates are cheaper.

I live near Crofton MD and DC plate is definitely the #1 non-MD plate I see around.

It is probably something like:
1. DC
2. Virginia
3. NY
4. Pennsylvania
5. New Jersey

Not many Delaware plates, but it is also such a small state.

In Indianapolis:
1. Illinois
2. Ohio
3./4. Michigan/Kentucky (about tie)
5. Not sure...a mix of Iowa, Tennessee, or NY

Seeing a lot of cali plates in nyc for the past 3 years.

At first I thought maybe those are rental cars
