Oldest Living American By State
This is a list of the oldest living people in America by state. Those entries color-coded as "verified" have been validated by the GRG. Those color-coded as 'pending' are backed by at least one document reviewed by the GRG supporting the reported age, but not the three necessary for validation by that institution. Those color-coded as 'unverified' are not (yet) backed by documentation supporting the reported age to the standards of the GRG.
