I'm trying to decide between ordering a New York ID or a Louisiana ID, and I could use some input from people with experience.

My situation:
• Currently living in New York
• Will primarily use locally, but occasionally travel to neighboring states
• Want something that won't raise eyebrows or look suspicious

My thinking:

Option 1: Get New York (home state)
Pros: Makes sense to have local ID, won't seem odd
Cons: Bouncers/cashiers here see them daily, might scrutinize more?

Option 2: Get Louisiana (different state)
Pros: Less familiarity might mean less scrutiny, common for students to have out-of-state IDs
Cons: Might raise questions about why I have an out-of-state ID while living here

What do you guys think? Has anyone used an out-of-state ID in their home state successfully? Or is it better to just match where you live?

Also open to other state suggestions if there's a particular state that's known to work well anywhere.

Magnetic strip works too if you were wondering about that specific feature.

If you're nervous about ordering, just go for it. You really won't regret it.
