I'm only 21 but have visited 35 of the 50 states (multiple cities in most states). I personally think it's quite a bit for my age! I have yet to do the northwest. The reason I've seen quite a few is because I followed my favorite band around for about 3 years- across parts of the country. We mostly did it just to roadtrip and get to see the us!
I've lived in the Hartford, CT area, Orlando, FL, and Waco, TX (for school), but am now looking for my final destination now- most likely south of CT.
Lived:
Baltimore, Philadelphia, Richmond, Chicago, Atlanta, Fairbanks (does that count), New York.
Been to on business: Just about every large city in America.
Favorite Big City: Philadelphia
Favorite due to pride and beauty: Chicago
Worst due to terrible city leadership: Atlanta and Philadelphia after Rendell.
City with the most potential to be great: Atlanta.
Cities I could care less about visiting again:
Los Angeles
Houston
Reno
Miami
I've technically lived in 4 places, but 2 of the cities were really close together in one region of the country, and the other two cities were also really close together in another region. So I can't really say that I've lived all over the country, but I have lived in more than one place.
As far as travel goes, I've seen a lot of places, but many of them were when I was younger. My recent travels have been limited.
Outside of living in Boston for a few months for college, I've lived in the Philly suburbs for my whole life. I've been to slightly over half of the U.S. and probably really seen around 8-10 states.
NYC--been there over a 100 times. Live in upstate growing up not far from there.
Chicago--great city
Los Angeles--I liked it. Don't listen to the haters on here, it definately wasn't as bad as many make it out. Nice mountainous backgrounds as well.
Liked a lot:
Philly, Washington D.C., Daytona Beach, Miami, Denver, Telluride, Aspen, Virginia Beach, Portland Me, Jersey Shore, ATlantic city, Las Vegas, Boston, Providence
Liked:
Baltimore, Richmond, Norfolk, Cincinnati,
Lived in:
Buffalo, Pittsburgh, Glendale Ca(suburb of LA, well sort of), Virginia Beach, Daytona beach, Rochester
Been there, didn't like:
Jacksonville--ugliest big city, Cleveland, Alexandria Virgina, Bridgeport, Columbus, Syracuse, Memphis, Knoxville
Been to at least once, everything already mentioned as well as:
Jamestown, Niagara falls, Harrisburg, Allentown, Reading, Boston, Providence, Boulder, Omaha, Lincoln, Olympia, Gary, Scranton, Patterson, Hartford, Manchester, Concord, Burlington, Bennington, Portsmouth, Binghamton, Elmira, San Diego, San Jose, San Francisco (just drove by)Salt lake city, Indianapolis, Toledo, New port news, Tide water, Chester, Milwaukee, I could probably list a page worth of cities ive been to but this is enough for now. I guess I've been all over, Never been to any city in Texas. I have not been to Texas, ND, Minnesotta, Arkansas, Lousiana, Hawaii, ..Thats it.
an option for me isn't there. i grew up and lived in the same city ~25 yrs, and am still in the same state, but have traveled all over the US and stayed in multiple cities for weeks/months at a time.
