Neat quiz. I was surprised by the cities in the first and tenth spots.

If 'Salt Lake' is acceptable with the 'city' why should you have to type out 'Oklahoma CITY'?

Probably because that's a state's name by itself. If you type salt lake, there really can be no other answer.

Pro tip: OKC is much faster and just as good.

Yeah, OKC and SLC are the way to go. Unfortunately, CC has never caught on for my home state's capital...

I understand why, I just wasn't thinking when I typed Oklahoma and then moved on. Silly me.

If Salt Lake works for Salt Lake City, Oklahoma and Carson should work.

Was not expecting the Dakotas or Oklahoma. You expect those to be pretty flat. However I guess they still have a high elevation.

I watched a video that showed highest elevation in each state was a great watch. The edge of rocky mountains that Dakotas hit, is still drastically higher than east coast.
