# West

> 13 jurisdictions including some of the most comprehensive licensing regimes in the country.

The West includes 13 jurisdictions and some of the most comprehensive licensing regimes in the country. California, Arizona, Nevada, and Hawaii regulate virtually all construction at the state level with low dollar thresholds. Other Western states like Colorado, Montana, and Wyoming regulate only specialty trades. Several states in this region — notably California, Arizona, Utah, and Nevada — are NASCLA reciprocity participants.
