   What are state abbreviations?

   • Each state has its own unique shortened name codes called state abbreviations used in written documents and mailing addresses. State abbreviations are in the same format: two letter abbreviations, both letters in uppercase with no periods or spaces between each letter. This format is the official United States Postal Services's postal abbreviation.

   When did state abbreviations come out?

   • In 1831 the USPS developed its first list of state abbreviations, each consisting of two letters except Ohio’s, which was simply “O.” In 1874 the list was updated to include new states, and longer abbreviations were introduced, largely to avoid confusion.

   How many letters are in a state's abbreviation?

   • In fact, they've only existed since 1963, just four years after the 50th state (Hawaii) was added to the union. Before that, most states had three to five letters in their abbreviations, such as FLA for Florida and CALIF for California — similar to their traditional abbreviations.

   Are Alaska and Hawaii abbreviated?

   • Alaska and Hawaii are also never abbreviated in traditional abbreviations, although they are abbreviated in USPS abbreviations (AK and HI). Some states, such as Tennessee and Texas, begin with the same letters. Giving either state the abbreviation of TE would be confusing; therefore, Tennessee is TN and Texas is TX.
