I’m not a checkbox kind of guy so there’s a lot I don’t really have much interest in going to but I’m about 30 or so

I've been to 35. Missing the 6 New England states, Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin, North Dakota, 3 west Coast states, Alaska and Hawaii. Haven't crossed a new one off the list since 2007 (South Dakota, Montana, and Idaho). I'm 49.
Fun fact, I got 35 states without ever going by air. First and so far only plane flight was to Houston in 2023.

I think I have been to all 50. There are a few that I have only driven through; Indiana and Minnesota come to mind. But I’ve spent at least one night in the rest. I can’t think of one I haven’t been to.
We have taken at least 3 really long road trips since I retired 11 years ago. Last June we drove to Oregon from NC.

That sounds miserable as shite, like the states I clocked taking a Greyhound from Indianapolis to San Fran. Living in New England or the Mid Atlantic almost doesn't count, but even the drive from the LA border to San Antonio sucks.

I'm missing Alaska, Oklahoma, Washington, Idaho, North Dakota, and Montana.

I just checked Hawaii off the list, which was my final one.
I have visited all 50.

So you’ve been to all of them. Nebraska and Kansas are just driveways to better parts of the country.

29 right now and will hit 30 in November when we go to Alaska
ETA: not counting layovers, but spending actual time in that state

All 50 if you include drive-through (Delaware).
Lived in 11.
Next goal is to see the most N/S/E/W points in the contiguous USA.
We've been to Cape Flattery in Washington (W)
Key West FL (S)
We will see West Quoddy Head ME in June (E) (no East Quoddy Head!)
Last point is the Northwest Angle in Minnesota (N).
We live in a beautiful country...
