in the United States "the west coast" is most often referred to as California, however all states on the east coast of the pacific ocean make up the west coast of the United Stated, these states include, Washington, Oregon, and California
Alaska is commonly excluded from the "West coast" because it is north of the lower 48 states and is located within the combines of the Arctic Circle, that includes the Arctic Ocean

In the lower 48, there are actually three states on the West Coast--California, Oregon and Washington. (Alaska is also on the West Coast). If someone were to say, "I'm going to the West Coast," many people would assume that the person was going to California, especially if he or she happened to be an actor or a musician.
