Chat with people from every state, coast to coast. USA Chat is for people across the United States. Pick a chat name, answer two quick questions and you're in. There's no email, no download and nothing to pay.
All users must be 18 or older and agree to our Terms of Use. Suspected underage users are removed. Report anything that breaks the rules using the tools in the chat.
Our USA chat rooms bring together people from all fifty states, from New York apartments to Montana ranches. It's the busiest of our country rooms, and conversation runs from the East Coast morning commute right through to late night on the West Coast.
One of the simplest reasons to use a country room is timing. In a global room, half the people you meet might be heading to bed just as you're getting going. Here, most people share your evening, your holidays and your news. When something big happens in the country, this is where people come to talk about it as it unfolds.
Plenty of regulars like to chat with people from their own state or region. Putting your state in your first message, or asking "anyone else from Ohio?", is the easiest way to find them. You'll also get plenty of friendly rivalry: Texans and Californians, Yankees and Red Sox fans, and endless debates about the right name for a fizzy drink.
Politics comes up too. Keep it civil, argue about ideas rather than people, and be ready to move on if the room wants to talk about something else.
Weekday evenings between 7pm and midnight Eastern are the liveliest. Weekends are busy from late morning, especially during big sports events. If you're on the West Coast, the late evening is when you'll find most of your neighbours online.
Sharing your state is fine, but keep your town, street, workplace and phone number to yourself until you know someone well. If someone you've just met pushes for a meet-up or asks for money, block and report them. Our safety tips have more advice.
Canadians often drop in here, and plenty of Americans enjoy the Canada Chat room in return. To talk with people from further afield, try UK Chat or the global Free Chat Rooms lobby.
Do I have to live in the US? No. Anyone is welcome, though most people here are American.
