In 2008, Texas led the nation with the number of headquarters for corporations on the Fortune 500 index of biggest corporations.
Texas was Number One with 58 corporations on the Fortune 500 listing their headquarters in Texas.
There were two other states that had more than 50. New York was second on the list with 55. California was a close third with 52. After that, there was a severe drop for the next states. Other than Texas, New York, and California, only one other state had more than 28.

Illinois was the fourth in the Fortune 500 with 33 corporations listing their headquarters in Illinois. They aren't quite as big as Texas, New York and California, but there is some distance between Illinois and the states below them.
The rest of the Top Ten on the Fortune 500 were: No. 5, Ohio (28), No. 6 Pennsylvania (25), No. 7, New Jersey (23), No. 8, Michigan (22), and No. 9 (tied) Minnesota (19) and Virginia (19).
