8. Florida
With its warm climate and diverse ecosystems, Florida is home to the highest number of snake species in the US, with over 50 different types. The state’s wetlands, forests, and urban areas provide habitats for a wide range of snakes, from the harmless garter snake to the venomous eastern diamondback rattlesnake. While encounters are common, most snakes are harmless if left undisturbed. Snakes in Florida play crucial roles in controlling rodent populations and maintaining ecological balance.
