This is a list of vice presidents of the United States by place of primary affiliation. Some vice presidents have been born in one state, but are commonly associated with another. New York was the birth state of eight vice presidents, the most of any state: George Clinton, Daniel D. Tompkins, Martin Van Buren, Millard Fillmore, Schuyler Colfax, William A. Wheeler, Theodore Roosevelt, and James S. Sherman. New York was also the home state of an additional four vice presidents—Aaron Burr, Chester A. Arthur, Levi P. Morton, and Nelson Rockefeller.

While political pundits have traditionally argued that the vice-presidential candidates have little effect on election outcomes in their home state, in 2016, political scientists Boris Heersink and Brenton D. Peterson argued that vice-presidential candidates did in fact offer a home-state advantage. In an article published in American Politics Research, they presented analysis of elections spanning 1884 to 1992, which "suggest that vice-presidential candidates increase their tickets’ performance in their home states by 2.67 percentage points on average—considerably higher than previous studies have found."
