Ranking the 50 State Welcome Signs

Overview of the welcome signs that drivers see as they enter the state along the interstate highways. I am looking at the design of the sign, not the quality of the actual physical sign (some are faded, bent, vandalized etc.) This is something that states can improve without much cost at all and is a nice way to give a first impression.

“Welcome to colorful Colorado” *has a brown and white welcome sign*

[@bulafritz]

At least they refrained from bragging about the Rocky mountains....

[@krisgray8085]

Okay, I feel compelled to defend my state's sign. The understated appearance of the sign actually is perfect for Colorado. You are not coming to see the sign, you come for the natural spectrum of color that Colorado offers. The wooden sign with the slogan reminds you to notice the beauty of my beloved state. A flashy, busy multi-colored sign is completely unnecessary and gaudy. Frankly, it would come off as disingenuous. The most likely reaction would be, " If it's so colorful, why do you need a sign of such... theatrical composition ?" No lipstick on a pig here.The sign tells you what Colorado is, and the plain tones of that sign and its motto are an invitation for you to take notice, because there is so much to take in. And when you come to visit and see the color of the natural landscape, you will understand why the welcome sign is the first awesome thing you see. It tells you that you are about to experience something special. I personally, while biased in opinion, find it perfect.

Lol they’re tryna harken back to the mining era with it. Not only was the landscape colorful, like the Colorado Paint Mines (which you should look up, they’re rad), not only was the sky incredibly colorful almost every morning and evening (rarely a gray day here except in winter), but the underground was colorful too with tons of gold. Since they were so proud of the gold in the mtns, they styled the sign to look like it belongs in a mining town.

One thing you may not know about Utah's welcome signs is that they have different ones for each region's entrance. For example, Southwestern UT is Zion NP, Western UT is SLC, Eastern UT is Arches, Northeastern UT is Dinosaurs for Dinosaur National Monument. They also have one for the Mountains and skiing. I'm glad you put UT at #2, but It really should be number 1 with their creativity for each region. Edit: It also appears that Lake Powell is one of them as well for that entrance to the state... Super creative and one of the many reasons I love living here! There may even be more I'm unaware of, but I take a lot of road trips and have enjoyed seeing all of them over the years.

The Oklahoma sign you've got here was retired earlier this year, with every example of it (and the larger alternative blue sign at most Interstate entrances) having been replaced with a similarly white but much more 'modern' looking sign.

Best new channel I’ve found!

Thank you!

I miss the old Nevada sign that just said, "Welcome to Nevada, the Silver State."

Great overview of the state signs - - I'm rather partial to the Arizona sign, myself, which is based on the state flag. The copper star in the middle represents their claim to being the Copper State, due to their enormous copper production in the early days.

Dude, You made trivia really interesting.

[@jaxjaxvang4910]

Beautiful signs! Thanks for sharing ❤

I sort of miss the old signs when driving into Maryland. WELCOME TO MARYLAND Please drive gently. Um, ok.

Wow, AK #1. Didn’t expect that. When you mentioned HI and the “cheat” with the airport sign I was expecting the same for AK not remembering that I actually drove out AK to the lower 48 myself 🤦🏽‍♀️ As we got closer and closer to the end I was like wait, did he mention AK already, surely we’re not number one

I love these videos!

That was a lot of fun to watch. I agree with your assessments on most of the signs. The best Indiana sign is the one they put on I-80/94 crossing from Illinois. They put it on an arched sign holder over the interstate. It’s very striking and it doesn’t (or didn’t) have that extra stuff about Lincoln’s boyhood home. He was only there for about six minutes lol. The other thing is the Illinois sign has the profile of Abraham Lincoln, not the Illinois River. I really enjoy your channel. I’m learning a lot of cool stuff!🌸

7:04 also, the river is the face of Abraham Lincoln.

Wow....Kansas is in the top five!!!!!!!

[@dougbowers1256]

As a Kansan whose been gone a long time, I’d never seen this sign. It’s definitely better than the old one that had an odd 1960’s color burst extending beyond the sign. I like they add the state motto “Ad astra per Aspera” - To the stars with difficulties.

Proud of my state! Been gone since 2006. Miss home.

Thank you for giving my state the best one. I appreciate it. We get little appreciation up here in alaska. :)
