50. Rhode Island
Being a small state such as Rhode Island has its perks; for example, you never have to spend two hours on the road on your way to work, since you can drive from one end of the state to the other in under an hour. Also, growing up in a small place, you get to really know your neighbors and learn how friendly everyone in Rhode Island is.

Being a small state, however, also has its downside, like anything else, and for Rhode Island, this downside is mainly being made fun of your size! But luckily for Rhode Islanders, their state pride is a lot bigger than their state, and so they embrace the jokes and they’ve developed a healthy sense of self-humor. That’s why the sign welcoming you to Rhode Island reads “So small and cute, Hello Kitty wishes she was us!”
