Is it fair to consult Duck Duck or Google?

Or a Chart?

Western most would have to be Alaska.
And Eastern I am guessing Maine.

This doesn't specify continental US so I'm thinking Hawaii furthest west. Alaska furthest north . It's either FL or TX furthest south . Maine probably gets furthest east

Trick question, does this include US protectorates? Guam comes to mind, American Samoa....

If we look at US Territories, American Samoa would be the southern most US Territory, but Guam is not east enough.

Some interesting answers. But, too many "whatif-isms".

Most North - Alaska @ 71.38° N @ Stevenson St., Nuwuk Lake
Most South - Hawaii @ 18.91°N @ Island of Hawai'i
Most East - Alaska @ 172.89°E @ Attu Is. Aleutian Is. Chain
Most West - Alaska @ 179.12°W @ Amatignak Is. Aleutian Is Chain
