Technically, San Juan County in Washington.  It is only served by SR 20 Spur... and that is only if you count the ferry landings as part of the route, even though it never actually travels onto any of the Islands, but the ferry route is part of the State Route.
They said take a left at the fork in the road.  I didn't think they literally meant a fork, until plain as day, there was a fork sticking out of the road at a junction.

WI: Door County has only 2 state maintained routes (42 and 57).  Every other county has a much higher count (5+) even in the great white north.

Ah, the open skies, wind at my back, warm sun on my... wait, where the hell am I?!
As a matter of fact, I do own the road.
Raise your what?

Totally forgot about San Juan County. May very qualify as a county without any state highways, at least in the traditional sense.

Skamania County, WA has only one year-round state-maintained route: WA-4. During the non-winter season, WA-504 (Spirit Lake Highway, serving Mt St Helens) sticks it nose in up in the northwest corner.

Skamania's county line is also the terminus of Highway 503 Spur and Highway 141. It once had Highway 140, which was decommissioned in 1991.

The fewest in any California County I believe is three.  Arizona doesn't have any single route counties either.  Off the top of my head I can't fathom New Mexico has any single state route counties due to the sheer glut of them.  Monroe County in Florida has US 1, if I remember my geography right the county line barely missed US 41 in the Everglades.

San Francisco county? Like CA-1, CA-82 and CA-35?

None in NJ. Most of the more rural areas in NJ are in large counties that also contain larger population centers, or else major US or Interstate corridors.

Um, San Francisco County also has I-80, I-280, and US 101.

Completely forgot to respond to that post.  Yuba and Modoc have the least State Maintained Routes at 3 each.
