What is the westernmost state in the U S?

Answer 1

In the entire US, it would be Alaska, since the Aleutian Islands reach into the Eastern Hemisphere. The entire state that is westernmost would be Hawaii (155 to 160 W longitude).

Out of the contiguous (connected) US states, not including Alaska and Hawaii, the answer would be Washington state.

Answer 2

Alaska is the westernmost state in the continental US.

Washington state is the westernmost state in the 48 contiguous states.

Hawaii is usually counted as the westernmost of all the states. However, technically, the little islands at the end of the Aleutian Islands chain are farther west than Hawaii. However that is just a tiny bit of Alaska. The entire state of Hawaii is totally way out west!

Answer 3

The Western United States, commonly referred to as the American West or simply ""the West,"" traditionally refers to the region comprising the westernmost states of the United States. Because the U.S. expanded westward after its founding, the meaning of the West has evolved over time. Prior to about 1800, the crest of the Appalachian Mountains was seen as the western frontier. Since then, the frontier moved further west and the Mississippi River was referenced as the easternmost possible boundary of the West. In the 21st century, the states which include the Rocky Mountains and the Great Basin to the West Coast are generally considered to comprise the American West.
