Regions without a traffic light

I recently learned that Hamilton County, NY, has no traffic lights. I'm now wondering, how many counties in the U.S. are like that?

Also, Bhutan is a country without any traffic lights, but I already knew that.

(Please forgive me if this thread has already been created.)
If you ever feel useless, remember that CR 504 exists.

Off the top of my brain in Colorado, no traffic lights in the following counties:


  • Baca
  • Bent
  • Cheyenne
  • Conejos
  • Costilla
  • Crowley
  • Custer
  • Dolores
  • Hinsdale
  • Jackson
  • Kiowa
  • Mineral
  • Rio Blanco
  • Saguache
  • San Juan
  • Sedgwick
  • Washington

17 of the 64 counties (27%).  Several counties only have one. 

Hell, if you want to look at regions, if you include all of the counties that are only east of I-25, there are only 12 cities with traffic lights:


  • Brush
  • Burlington
  • Elizabeth
  • Fort Morgan
  • Holyoke
  • La Junta
  • Lamar
  • Limon
  • Rocky Ford
  • Sterling
  • Wray
  • Yuma

We live a little differently out west.

You are forgiven. :) It also includes counties with just one signal.

Doesn't look like every state was included.  My CO data seems to be new info.  Maybe mods can merge.

bent has one, at the intersection of us 50 and 6th st / cr ff-75 (whatever they call that street that leads to the private cca joint...)

and then i re-read your post.. d'oh.

not even here.
clinched:
I-64, I-80, I-76 (west), *64s in hampton roads, 225,270,180 (co, wy)

US71

Up until 5-6 years ago, I could have said Madison County, AR, but then Huntsville put one up next to the old Walmart. To my knowledge, it's the only one in the county.
