How many states in us?

  • how many states in u.s.? Is puerto rico included or not?

  • Answer:

    There are 50 states (4 of which--Pennsylvania, Virginia, Kentucky and Massachusetts--call themselves "commonwealth" instead of "state") and the District of Columbia. Puerto Rico is a "possession" of the USA, as are Guam, American Samoa and the US Virgin Islands. Puerto Rico is known as a "commonwealth" in free association with the USA.
