Quick Quiz: Do You Know What States Are Associated With These Slogans?

Some state nicknames and slogans are obvious. Most would recognize the Sunshine State as Florida for example or the Empire State as New York. Others, however, are a bit more challenging, especially if you’ve never been to certain parts of the country. Here’s a fun quickie quiz on state nicknames and slogans. Let’s see how you can do.

  1. The Natural State
  2. The Constitution State
  3. The Garden State
  4. The Magnolia State
  5. The First State
  6. The Treasure State
  7. The Silver State
  8. The Beehive State
  9. The Ocean State
  10. The Pine Tree State
  11. The Gem State
  12. The Sunflower State

Given some thought, the names and nicknames and slogans make sense, although, at first glance, some of these can be challenging. Once you are ready, you can check your answers below.

Not only do states have their own slogans, but every state also has differing pricing when it comes to auto insurance. While the average cost for auto insurance in the U.S. is $1,365 annually, the highest rates can be found in The Great Lakes State ($2,389 annually) and the lowest in the Green Mountain State ($932 annually). The difference between the average lowest cost for auto insurance and the highest is nearly $1,500 annually. But even in individual states, rates can vary widely between insurance companies. That is why it is so important to compare.

Maine – 12,) Kansas.  By the way, the state with the highest average auto insurance premiums is Michigan (Great Lakes State) and the lowest is the Green Mountain State of Vermont.
