Sandy Cheeks is originally from which state?

• A. California
• B. Alaska
• C. Hawaii
• D. Texas

Answer: (D)

Where a character comes from shapes how we understand their perspective and experiences. Sandy Cheeks is a land-dwelling squirrel from Texas who ends up living in Bikini Bottom to pursue science. Her Texas origin shows up in her Southern-influenced demeanor and in the context of her air-filled treedome that lets her inhabit an underwater world. Because the show repeatedly ties her background to Texas, that state is the correct one for her origins. The other states aren’t part of her canonical backstory, so they don’t fit with what the character is established to be.
