All US states and territories honor each other's requests for extradition - there are no 'safe-haven' states - it is impossible to know with certainty whether a particular state will choose to extradite you or not, there are simply too many variables. It may depend on the offense and the seriousness of it and/or how badly they want you returned - most states WILLextradite for felony offenses.

Every state gives another state a set amount of time it will hold a prisoner for extradition. If the issuing state doesn't pick up the prisoner within the time given, the holding state will release the prisoner.

The issuing state decides whether it will send someone to pick up a prisoner it wants. These states factor in the severity of the offense as well as the holding state location.
