Iowa usually doesn't mind doing all the talking, but sometimes, she pushes Nellie to say something. Sometimes, Iowa comes over so she can help Nellie.
=== Kansas (Con R. Schmidt) ===
Iowa usually comes over to help Kansas with his animals or farming. Iowa is still sorry for not being there during Bleeding Kansas and still tries to help Kansas anytime she can.
===Missouri (Cam L. Scott-Schmidt)===
Iowa and Missouri don't have a really good relationship. They still fight about who won the Honey War. Missy once asked to go on an adventure with her.

Despite this, Iowa wants to repair their relationship. However, Missouri doesn't seem keen on repairing it.
===Minnesota (Ethan G. Erickson)===
Iowa loves to hang out with Sota and loves to smother him in affections. Iowa always gives Sota a treat after playing volleyball with her because she knows he doesn't have to and he isn't a good volleyball player. Because of this, she always agrees to play volleyball with him. She's glad that she can drag Sota to her fairs and in turn, Sota drags her to his state festivals. She also adores him because he helps with her corn farm.
===America (Alfred F. Jones)===
America and Iowa hang out sometimes as America's usually busy or completely forgets that Iowa's there. Iowa doesn't do as much talking with America as she doesn't feel like it. Usually, they hang out after Iowa's done hanging out with Nellie.
