Level 57

Jul 22, 2013

Mixed up every one from Texas, 100% everywhere else

+39

Level 90

Oct 3, 2013

Haven't they told you "don't mess up Texas?" I'm sure that's how it goes...

Level 60

Oct 5, 2020

It's called, "Don't Mess with Texas."

Level 27

Mar 21, 2023

this guy doesn't know what a joke is

Level 48

Jan 2, 2014

moi aussi

Level 58

Apr 16, 2021

We native Texans prefer that the term "Yee-Haw State" be used. Thank you.

Level 29

Apr 18, 2021

Actually I was born in Texas and I kind of disagree that culture isn't like THAT popular anymore.

Level 46

Nov 28, 2022

Me too, really as long as you're not from Austin, Dallas, or Houston, you just have to be a Texas-proud gun-toting lunatic.

Level 43

Jul 23, 2013

Managed to get all of them right. Not American.

Level 58

Nov 28, 2020

Im so dissapointed in my own country bc there are people who can't tell you all the states or they might be like i thought france was a city or something like that meanwhile people from other countries be getting 100 on this (btw i got a hundred im just talking about a lot of people from america)

Level 55

Apr 14, 2021

I can get 122 out of 196 on the country quiz.

Level 55

Apr 14, 2021

And I'm from the U.S and I'm 12.

Level 58

Apr 16, 2021

s a m e @KatnissGeography feelsbadman

Level 74

Oct 14, 2021

The old 'Americans are stupid routine.' Do you really think that the average person in Greece or India or Brazil or Cameroon is a geography expert?

Level 65

Dec 13, 2021

Americans are bad at geography in specific for how advanced of a nation they live in. Obviously, the average American is going to be better at geography than the average person from a third world country. I am American and there are definitely many intelligent people here, but focusing on geography in specific, the school system is not so great at teaching it. In my school, geography is taken in for a semester in 4th grade, a semester in 7th grade, and the whole year in 9th grade. Also, I do know that in many American schools it is gym teachers who teach geography.

Level 76

Mar 5, 2022

Yeah, I had a friend ask me if Baltimore was in Louisiana (We live in Texas)

Level 52

Apr 27, 2022

I cry and shudder at the thought

Level 46

Nov 28, 2022

Me too, you see those videos where someone gets asked on the street to point to one US state and name it correctly and they'll waffle for like five minutes and then point to all of California and say "Los Angeles".

Also @Tornadoer I agree, the American school system is bad at teaching basic geographic locations.

Level 73

Sep 26, 2013

Yes!!!!! All correct with 1:30 left.

Level 7

Dec 22, 2013

2 (also not american) (didn't try :) )

100% with 1:20 left!

Level 60

Oct 7, 2014

Add more cities. How about cities with AAA or AA baseball teams?

Level 84

Oct 13, 2014

100% with 2:58 left. way too easy barely had to think about my answer except for 2 or 3 of them. just saying'

Level 88

Jun 28, 2018

4:01

Level 57

Oct 13, 2014

Canada here, I only missed Memphis.

Level 87

Oct 13, 2014

If you like this quiz, try my Largest US law enforcement agencies. quiz. Sorry for the shameless plug, but it's the first quiz I've submitted and no one has taken it.

Level 87

Apr 14, 2021

Nearly seven years later, and a whopping 297 people have taken it with one nomination! I still highly recommend it if you have the time! ;)

Level 20

Oct 13, 2014

So Easy 100% with 3:21 left

Level 36

Oct 13, 2014

I got all but one...guess I don't know my cities in Tennesse well

Level 32

Oct 16, 2014

All right, and with 3:32 left to boot

Level 84

Nov 26, 2014

agree with many prior comments, this is way too easy 100% with 3:18 left. only one i had to look at list for was Birmingham AL

Level 56

Feb 9, 2015

100% and I live in Australia and have never been to the U.S. I am a geography wiz.

Level 33

Feb 10, 2015

It really makes me mad when people say "100% and I'm not from America." GOOD FOR YOU! I'm sure that if I tried I could get 100% on any other country, and in fact, I have! Why do non-Americans feel that need to go around bragging that they know our country? Honestly, why does it matter so much? Americans aren't stupid, in case you didn't know. So get that stupid stereotype out of your head. Please, thanks.

Level 56

Apr 9, 2015

I actually am American and live in South Dakota.

Level 52

Dec 5, 2015

No, we're not stupid. But our American educational system is broken. Sadly broken. If you asked the average person on the street to take this test it would be appalling.

Level 49

Feb 16, 2016

It is brokeded from Mr. Teacher Person.

Level 52

Dec 5, 2015

And by the way, I got all of them right. Not because of school, but because I pay attention. And I've been to all but a few of them.

Level 77

Apr 14, 2021

They are proud for mastering a quiz that should be quite hard for most foreigners. Americans do that too and it's not a problem.

Level 69

Feb 14, 2015

Boise made it! Probably just to fill in the "Mountain states void".

Level 49

Feb 16, 2016

Great potatoes out there.

Level 66

Oct 24, 2017

Indeed

Level 49

Oct 24, 2017

But... I love Boise!

Level 68

Jun 25, 2015

100% with 3:54 remaining. Four minutes, anyone?

Level 18

Jul 8, 2015

got all 2:38. Knew like only a few though 15 mins ago ( european)

Level 38

Jul 17, 2015

I confused Cincinnati and Cleveland oops I always confuse Ohio cities

Level 65

Jul 18, 2015

Woah, I never knew Charlotte was in South Carolina!

Level 49

Feb 16, 2016

You still don't. It's not.

Level 16

Jun 30, 2020

No, silly Potato... Liopleurodon meant that Charlotte is misplaced on the border between NC and SC. It's decidedly in the middle of NC. Quiz author should fix it!

Level 59

Feb 27, 2021

Isn't it near the border with SC?

Level 68

Feb 23, 2022

The city limits of Charlotte touch the border with SC

Level 82

Aug 27, 2015

Too many cities! I'm fine with the edges but all those blobs around the Great Lakes mess with my head. My excuse is that I'm English but really I should know more than I do.

Level 73

Nov 25, 2015

I always get mixed up with Cleveland and Cinncinati. I got all the others, though (however, I am a ten year old from Denver, and I'm learning about US geography in school).

Level 74

Dec 7, 2015

I got one wrong (I'm not American) but get only 3 out of 5?

Level 24

Jan 2, 2016

100% canadian!

Level 49

Oct 24, 2017

Just like I'm 100% American!

Level 38

Jan 3, 2016

Dumb me I always thought Washington D.C was in Washington

Level 49

Feb 16, 2016

Lol

Level 65

Mar 18, 2016

I think I got the top time: 3:48 on my second try, 3:17 on my first!

Level 49

Oct 24, 2017

4:09 on my second, 3:43 on my first!

Level 45

Apr 25, 2016

As an Ohioan, it makes me sad to see Cincy and Cleveland at the bottom of the list :(

Level 69

Aug 13, 2017

As a fellow Ohioan, I wonder if it may have something to do with their lousy football teams. ;)

Level 83

May 25, 2018

There are only six states with more than one city on the quiz, and several with zero (like my own), so don't feel too bad.

Level 43

Aug 30, 2019

I bet people mix them up with each other

Level 32

Jul 6, 2016

Was very happy with how smoothly everything started out, then it all fell to pieces in the Midwest!

Level 62

Feb 9, 2017

Same. There's nothing distinguishable about St. Louis, Milwaukee and Minneapolis. Easy to mix those up

Level 63

Oct 28, 2016

I got all of them with 2:41, having only been to Pittsburgh, Philly, and Boston. For some reason I always thought that Cincinnati was in Indiana (but knew that Indianapolis certainly was) , but I guess not.

Level 39

Nov 25, 2016

Great Quiz! However, Minneapolis should be moved a bit south.

Level 61

Jun 30, 2020

I thought the same thing. Damn near hinkley

Level 52

Dec 30, 2016

I have lived on all 4 coasts of the United States so I've traveled a lot in my young life. 100%.

Level 36

Jul 26, 2017

Only one I didn't get was Omaha and I'm British. Do spend almost all my free time looking at maps though. Shut up, I know girls....

Level 55

Oct 24, 2017

This WaS pretty easy to me, NY errors were just careless like clicking Denver when I meant to hit Dallas. What is scary to me is my daughter who's in 7th grade and has gotten AS and BS HER WHOLE LIFE IN SCHOOL DID HORRIBLY. They don't teach things like I used to have to learn. Anything I had to memorize...multiplication tables ,states , capitols, she he never had to learn.

Level 62

Oct 25, 2017

When my daughter was in 7th grade, she had to make a poster glamorizing any president's famous program.

I told about a few including FDR's New Deal and LBJ's Great Society.

She worked on it for a couple of hours brought into my office and showed her wonderful poster which said

A NEW SOCIETY!

WHAT A GREAT DEAL!

Level 44

Dec 6, 2017

Well to be fair anything can easily be looked up on our phones nowadays so learning this kind of thing became less relevant. Understanding is more important than memorizing anyway.

Level 65

Oct 24, 2017

I feel dumb I'm American and it took me 3 tries to get a perfect score

Level 24

Oct 30, 2017

100% first try 2:59 remaining

Level 37

May 16, 2018

All of them with 50 seconds left. And I'm Aussie

Level 38

Aug 19, 2018

As a native Nashvillian, y'all shouldn't miss us! Nashville is the capital of Tennessee, therefore, it's right in the middle! When you think Memphis think of the Mississippi River; it's all the way on the other side of the state :)

Level 38

Oct 24, 2018

For an Asian , 3:05 left .

Level 48

Jan 6, 2019

Cleveland at the bottom? Seriously?? Surprised El Paso has so many successes...

Level 46

Level 23

Mar 4, 2019

Only got 11 Lol but I'm Canadian

Level 46

May 20, 2019

Mixed up Nashville and Memphis..

Level 63

Jul 26, 2019

This quiz would be really cool, if the cities were random and changed every time!

Level 50

Dec 9, 2019

Only one i got wrong was Birmingham, and im Canadian.

Level 59

Dec 10, 2019

The place where you have Memphis is really Blytheville, AR or Dyersburg, TN. Memphis is right next to both AR and MS, but more of the suburbs are in MS. The metro area does sprawl a bit, mostly to the South and East due to the River and nice farmland in AR.

Level 34

Jul 10, 2020

8/24

I'm from south america bruh

Level 77

Jul 24, 2020

AAAARRRRGGGHHHH Got all right except Dallas (mixed up its position with Houston)

Level 60

Oct 5, 2020

Dude, did you have a seizure?

Level 35

Jul 29, 2020

i only got 11 and i live in america lol... i guess its because i live in hawaii and have never been to the mainland.

Level 68

Nov 3, 2020

Oof I'm American and missed one... I didn't know which Ohio cities were where!

Level 58

Nov 28, 2020

Level 59

Feb 27, 2021

They should do this without state borders.

Level 83

Apr 9, 2021

I'm really never sure where Nashville and Memphis are relative to each other. Their positions just won't stick in my head.

Level 80

Apr 14, 2021

Alphabetical order, left to right.

Level 57

Apr 14, 2021

As an Oklahoman, I am a little ticked at Oklahoma City being left off for cities like Boise or Omaha. Other than that nice and easy quiz.

Level 65

Jun 24, 2021

Of course,the first city will be Quizmaster's home --- Seattle

Level 26

Aug 12, 2021

Got them all easy with 3:40 left, im surprised there's Omaha and Boise but not Baltimore, Jacksonville or Kansas City

Level 59

Nov 12, 2021

Memphis isn't quite in the right place, it should be in the southwestern corner of Tennessee.

Level 24

Nov 26, 2021

79% (not American). I missed Tampa, Charlotte, Birmingham, Memphis, Omaha, Milwaukee, and St. Louis. I didn't guess any wrong though. Not bad for first attempt at American Geography

Level 67

Sep 8, 2022

31/34. Not bad for an Aussie! I confused Pittsburgh and Philly.

Level 33

Nov 13, 2022

Where is Alaska and Hawaii? just asking

Level 74

Nov 18, 2022

Alaska is just west of Canada, across the Bering Strait from Russia, and Hawaii is in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.

Level 46

May 23, 2023

33/34, missed Cleveland
