There are 5 states whose western borders are the Mississippi, except for a tiny portion of Illinois:

Wisconsin, Illinois, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Mississippi.

*Because of turns in the river, some areas of the 5 states with eastern borders on the river (Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Arkansas, and Louisiana) are actually east of the river. Both bridges from the East Bank to the West Bank at New Orleans actually run west to east.
