Programmers and developers inevitably need a list of U.S. State Names and/or U.S. State Name Abbreviations list at some point in time. These lists are irreplaceable, whether one is coding the next billion-user app or simply mucking around on a side project.
Below are lists of U.S. State Names and Abbreviations listed with double-quotations for the broadest language compatibility possible. There are also links to non-quoted .txt
versions of each below. Note that US territories are also included in the US State Names List section but not present in the abbreviations list.
