I’m in Texas. Eh, the people mostly suck. The culture celebrates ignorance, I’m politically of unpopular opinion, the stereotypical music sucks, they voted for Trump, and weed is illegal. Why am I here?

I live in Oregon Portland, I love the fact that we do not have sales tax. This means I can afford to eat even if I have very limited funds. I like the freedom of thought in Oregon, I love the enviroment protection that's observed by almost everyone. I feel home in Oregon.

I live in Oregon, which, as a state is very liberal and progressive as well although half the state, and unfortunately the part we are living in is very conservative. Fortunately, the west side and most populated area swings for the state. I do really love Oregon, both for the politics and because it's such a beautiful state.

Montana: on one hand, drunk driving and meth...white supremacists...judges that go easy on rapists...John Mayer...

On the other hand, wilderness, outdoor recreation, clean environment, low population... Oh yeah and Jeanette Rankin!

It's a wash.

ETA: no sales tax. Meh-yay.

Washington, especially western Wa. I am proud we are progressive and feel lucky I live in a rural part that is even more progressive than many urban areas (when the vote for gay marriage was had our county, San Juan Island, had the highest yes vote. Unfortunately, here as other places there are too many extreme liberals. Those that follow the conservative ideal in the importance of loyalty (my tribe right or wrong). Also, as in many other states there is a divide; it is called the Cascade curtain (mountains running from S. to N. Many places on the East side are very conservative. However, the money and power are on the West and without us the East would be in dire straits.

I am not from here but have discovered this state has more geographical differences than any other states. It has amazing natural beauty and the natural beauty shapes how many feel about preserving the environment for future generations. Where one lives can and does shape how one views the world.

Kentucky is a mixed bag. On the plus side, we have bourbon, beautiful bluegrass countryside, and a fine musical tradition. On the minus side, to the point of embarrassment, we have Mitch McConnell, Rand Paul, Matt Bevin, the Ark Encounter, and the Creation "Museum."

Tennessee? Oh, goodness. Not very.

I'm in Texas, so not very. Reddest of the red states. We are a "right to hire" state, meaning a boss can fire you for no good reason.

Dissapointed. Florida is one of the worse state'. It's filled with racism. The amount of drug users is ridiculous, it's more than any large city per capita and because of this crime is very high aswell us unemployment rates being pretty high. Florida is environmentally dirty morals are almost non existent and FL is also one of the dumbest states in the country statistically.

Love living here in Oregon in the blue part. Like that almost half of our population is unchurched. Like our land use laws. The beaches are for all of us. Early adopter of bottle bill. Environmental conscience. Am part of a humanist group. Beaches and mountains are within an hour travel. Legalized pot. Like the mild climate, and don't mind the drizzle.

Ashamed - California - we have Pelosi, Maxine Waters, and sanctuary cities

To be proud of an imaginary line in the sand is a sign of insanity.

My home state has corn, Cornhusker football, cows and cow shit. Not much else. Which is why I don't live there anymore.

I reserve pride for things I've accomplished, so none.

Smartest.

We're the Scandinavia of America.

I live in Florida and I am not proud of the state. The politics of the state are backward and somewhat corrupt. It is stupidly pro real estate development and does not show the intelligence to invest in education and infrastructure. It makes little or no effort to diversify its economy, and does not produce near the quantity of good paying jobs needed and the dominant political forces try to hold wages down.

Lucky, yes. Proud, no. It's not like I got to choose. I was born here and found it beneficial to stay.

Very..ok?

VirginCotton Putin wants to be friends????? BBAAHHHHH That's why he interferes in elections, starts wars, and poisons his adversaries. Not the kind of friend anyone wants. Trump isn't trying to be friends with Putin, he is being blackmailed at best, voluntarily colluding at worst.

I think at 61 years old I'm in a pretty good state.

So yes, I'm proud of my state.

Pennsylvania is taxing us to death.

I live in Georgia, one of the most backward states in the Union. Not much to be proud of here. Oh, yeah, it is visually beautiful, but so are most states.

I'm from Texas. Can you believe Rick Perry actually ran for POTUS??? And then he tried a second time!!! Geeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez. Sad part is that he represents the common mentality in Texas. Sad.....

I'm proud to be a Mainer. It takes a certain type of person to thrive up beyond the wall, I mean Boston.

Maryland for the win.
