List of U.S. states and territories by elevation facts for kids

Enlargeable U.S. map with state and territory high points shown as red dots and low points as green squares except where low point is a shoreline.

Enlargeable map of the 50 U.S. states by mean elevation.

This article lists the heights of land in each of the 50 U.S. states, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. territories.

When we talk about how high a place is, we can describe it in a few ways:

• The highest spot in an area (its high point).
• The lowest spot in an area (its low point).
• The average height of all the land in an area.
• The middle height of all the land in an area.
• How much the height changes from the lowest to the highest point.

All the heights listed here are measured using a standard system called the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88). The locations (coordinates) use the World Geodetic System of 1984 (WGS 84). The average heights for each state, Washington D.C., and Puerto Rico are very close to the real numbers, usually within about 100 feet. We don't have average height data for other U.S. territories.

Exploring High Points: What is Highpointing?

People who enjoy climbing to the highest point in every U.S. state and territory are called highpointers. It's a fun challenge to see how many high points you can reach!

How High is Each State?

This table shows the highest and lowest points for each of the 50 U.S. states, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. territories. It also includes their average height and how much the height changes from low to high.
