Amazon is the largest company with D.C. area headquarters since its HQ2 opened in Arlington, WTOP said. It ranks No. 2 on the national Fortune 500 list and tops the regional list with $574.8 billion in revenue last year.

Fortune said California had the most Fortune 500 companies this year of any state.

The Golden State, with 57 of the nation's largest companies, claimed first place for the first time since 2014. California beat both Texas and New York, which tied for second place with 52 companies each.

Here are the top ten companies that made the Fortune 500 list, along with the states they are based in:

1. Walmart − Arkansas
2. Amazon − Washington
3. Apple − California
4. UnitedHealth Group − Minnesota
5. Berkshire Hathaway − Nebraska
6. CVS Health − Rhode Island
7. Exxon Mobil − Texas
8. Alphabet − California
9. McKesson − Texas
10. Cencora − Pennsylvania

California took first place despite the fact that five companies fell off the state's list this year, according to Fortune. That's because nine companies headquartered in the Golden State were added to the list, including Clorox, DoorDash and Workday.
