Other Presidents born in log cabins include Andrew Jackson, James Polk, Zachary Taylor, Millard Fillmore, Franklin Pierce, James Buchanan, Abraham Lincoln, and Ulysses S. Grant.

Located in Hyde Park, New York, Springwood is a 1793 estate where Franklin D. Roosevelt was born in 1882. The town is also home to the Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library and Museum, which opened in 1941 as the first official presidential library. Grover Cleveland, meanwhile, was born in the neighboring state of New Jersey in 1837.

Andrew Johnson, the 17th U.S. President, was born in 1808 in Raleigh, the capital of North Carolina. His first home still stands, though not in its original location. It has been moved to a park where the National Park Service can maintain it as a national historic site. Johnson is one of only two U.S. Presidents who were born in a state capital, the other being Barack Obama — who was born in Honolulu, Hawaii.

Theodore Roosevelt was born in 1858 in a Manhattan brownstone on a tree-lined street. Teddy lived in the home until he was 14, when the neighborhood transitioned from being residential to commercial.

Clinton won the presidency in 1992, becoming the first and only Arkansan to occupy the White House.

Before he became a Hollywood movie star and was elected President, Ronald Reagan was born in the small Illinois town of Tampico. The only Illinois-born President, Reagan grew up and went to college in the state before working in the Iowa radio industry. Eventually, he parlayed his experience there into acting. Reagan went on to become governor of California before becoming the 40th U.S. President.

Chester Alan Arthur, America's 20th President, was born in the small town of Fairfield, Vermont, just 15 miles from the Canadian border. In fact, he was born so close to the Canadian border that some conspiracy theorists at the time claimed he may have been ineligible to be President. Calvin Coolidge was born farther south in Vermont.

Martin Van Buren was the first President to hail from the state of New York. He was born in the village of Kinderhook on December 5, 1782. Van Buren was also the first President born a U.S. citizen. Millard Fillmore was also born in New York, in the town of Summer Hill, 18 years later in 1800.

Ohioans occupied the Oval Office for a 12-year period, from 1869 to 1881. Ulysses S. Grant, the 18th President, was born in Point Pleasant, and he was followed by Rutherford B.

It took 31 Presidents to elect a person born west of the Mississippi River. That person was Herbert C. Hoover, a native of West Branch, Iowa. The small prairie town is located about 45 miles from the Illinois border and the Mississippi River. Since Hoover’s time, a handful of other Presidents have been born in the West, but he remains the only Iowan.

Both John Adams and his son John Quincy Adams were born in the Boston suburb of Quincy, Massachusetts. The elder Adams was born in 1735 in a colonial house dating back to 1678. His son — the future sixth President — was born in 1767, in a home located on the same historic property.

Andrew Jackson was born in 1767 in the Waxhaws region, which is right on the border between North and South Carolina. At the time, the area was unsurveyed, and historians still aren't sure in which state Jackson was technically born. During his life, he claimed South Carolina as his birthplace, but an aunt who was at his birth argued he was born in North Carolina.

The first Pennsylvania-born commander-in-chief was James Buchanan, America’s 15th President. He was born in 1791 in Cove Gap and is the only Pennsylvania-born President besides Joe Biden. In 1789, Buchanan’s father purchased a trading post that he renamed Stony Batter, after the family home in Ireland. The site is now a state park with a stone pyramid denoting where Buchanan was born.

The only President to hail from California was Richard Nixon, who was born in 1913 in a modest house in Yorba Linda. Nixon lived there for the first nine years of his life before moving to the nearby community of Whittier in 1922. After college, he entered the world of politics, becoming first a U.S. representative and then one of California's two senators. Nixon then campaigned for the presidency and won in 1968. Though he served as the govenor of California, Ronald Reagan was actually born in Tampico, Illinois.

America's first President, George Washington, was born in 1732 on his father’s Pope Creek tobacco farm in Westmoreland County, Virginia.

Texas, California, and Pennsylvania all have Presidents they can call their own, but Florida — the third-most populous state in the country with 22 million residents — does not. Though several notable Floridians, including William H. Seward and Marco Rubio, have run for the presidency, none have been successful.

Eight of America’s 46 Presidents were born in Virginia, more than any other state. Four of them were among the first five leaders of the executive branch, including George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and James Monroe. The other four are William Henry Harrison, John Tyler, Zachary Taylor, and Woodrow Wilson. However, it has been more than 100 years since a Virginian sat in the Oval Office.

The first President born a citizen of the United States (rather than a British subject) was the eighth President, Martin Van Buren, and one of the founders of the Democratic party.

Barack Obama was born on August 4, 1961, in Honolulu, Hawaii — only two years after Hawaii became a state. The 44th U.S. President is the only one born outside of the contiguous United States. Raised by his grandparents, Obama also spent a year of his childhood in the state of Washington and four years in Indonesia.

James Earl Carter was born on October 1, 1924, at the Wise Sanitarium in Plains, Georgia. The previous 38 Presidents had all been born at home, making Carter the first to be born in a hospital.
