About
How to use this U.S. states list
Search by state name, capital or two-letter postal code. California shows CA, capital Sacramento and region West. New York’s capital is Albany, not New York City.
The table covers 50 states plus the District of Columbia. D.C. is not a state, but it appears in shipping forms, voting maps and many national datasets.
Postal codes and census regions
The two-letter code is the USPS abbreviation used in addresses. Census regions group states into Northeast, Midwest, South and West for statistics and comparisons.
This English list is the U.S. counterpart to the Brazilian federative units list on DexBase—not a translation of Brazilian states.
