Besides the obvious “welcome to [state name]” sign. Is there a significant change in architecture, infrastructure, agriculture, store brands, maybe even culture?

    There are 50 states and a lot of different border arrangements. If a border is something dramatic like a river and you know that’s the state border you can tell.

    Often the only way to tell is a change in road surface or signage, or the “Welcome to state” sign. Google navigation will tell you too.

      Yeah most often the road gets worse /better, either because one state does a better job with road maintenance, or they’re just on different schedules.

      Also sometimes the signage for state routes changes slightly.
