In vielen der 50 Bundesstaaten der USA gibt es Wintersportgebiete, von Maine bis nach Kalifornien. Vor allem drei große Gebirgszüge machen das Skifahren in den Vereinigten Staaten möglich: Zum einen sind dies die Rocky Mountains, die die sogenannten Mountain States durchqueren (Colorado, Nevada, Montana, Wyoming, Idaho und Utah). Die Cascades Range zieht sich von Kanada über Oregon bis hinunter nach Kalifornien. Im Osten der USA befinden sich zudem die Appalachen.

Der U.S. Highway 1 (auch U.S. Route 1 oder US 1) ist ein Highway, der parallel zur US-amerikanischen Ostküste verläuft. Die Gesamtlänge beträgt 3846 Kilometer. Im Norden endet der Highway in Fort Kent in Maine an der kanadischen Grenze. Im Süden ist es Key West an Floridas Küste zum Golf von Mexiko. Die US Route 1 verläuft an vielen Orten parallel zur Interstate 95. Festgelegt wurde sie 1926 zunächst nur zwischen der kanadischen Grenze und dem U.S. Highway 94 in Miami.
Die wichtigsten Städte, die der Highway passiert, sind Miami, Columbia, Richmond, Washington, D.C., Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York City, Boston und Portland.
Der Highway trägt die Nummer eins, weil er der am östlichsten gelegene ist und Nord-Süd-Highways von Ost nach West nummeriert werden.

Die Region grenzt im Norden an Kanada, im Westen an den Mittleren Westen, im Süden an die Südstaaten und im Osten an den Atlantik.
Der genaue Umfang der Region ist nicht eindeutig definiert. Nach der Definition des United States Census Bureau[1] besteht der Nordosten aus Neuengland (mit den Staaten Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut) und den Mittelatlantikstaaten (New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania). In diesen insgesamt neun Staaten, die unbestritten dem Nordosten zugerechnet werden, lebten im Jahr 2008 etwa 55,9 Millionen Personen.[2]
Andere Behörden ordnen dem Nordosten auch Maryland, Delaware und Washington, D.C.[3] bzw. sogar Virginia und West Virginia[4] zu. Das United States Census Bureau betrachtet die Staaten südlich der Mason-Dixon-Linie sowie Delaware dagegen als der Region South Atlantic und den Südstaaten zugehörig.
美国东北部为美国人口调查局所定义的美国地区。美国东北部北临加拿大,西临中西部,南接美国南部,东向大西洋。此区域乃美国工商业最发达的区域及都市化程度最高的区域,美国第一大都会纽约市即位于该区。
根据人口调查局的定义,美国的东北部包括9个州:康涅狄格州、缅因州、麻塞诸塞州、新泽西州、新罕布什尔州、纽约州、宾夕法尼亚州、罗得岛州、以及佛蒙特州,东北部还可分为新英格兰以及纽约都会区[1]。有些非官方的较广义之分类会因为这些州被包括在波士顿-华盛顿城市带之中,所以有时会将马里兰州、特拉华州、华盛顿特区、弗吉尼亚州、以及西弗吉尼亚州包含在此区域中(所以会因人而异),但是人口调查局官方将这些州定义为南大西洋地区的一部分[1]。而有些较狭义的分类则只将此区域限制于新英格兰、纽约都会区、及费城地区之中。虽然俄亥俄州的绝大部分地区是被分类在中西部之下,但大克里夫兰地区及俄亥俄州东北部在文化上(因为传统以及语言腔调之关系)被认为比该州其他地区较为倾向美国东北部之文化。
美国东北部是全美最富裕的地区。根据2004年的资料,美国人口调查局的报告显示全美10个最富裕的州里有5个就位于东北部。这五个州依据家庭收入排名为:新泽西州(第一)、康涅狄格州(第二)、马里兰州(第三)、麻塞诸塞州(第五)、以及新罕布什尔州(第六)。根据经济分析局2005年的报告指出,全美前五个每人年均收入最高的州依序为:康涅狄格州、马里兰州、麻塞诸塞州、新泽西州和纽约州。在此区域内,纽约市独占美国2005年国内生产总值的8%。此区域内的州都有着富裕的经济收入,不过多数的州的人口以及面积都其他州小,除了纽约州、新泽西州、与宾夕法尼亚州在全美人口数排前10名之列,没有一个州列居于全美面积前10大之列。
