Here are some topographical heat maps of every state in the country. Florida is the flattest state in the country, and it's so flat that its variations in elevation are only 1/3 that of the next flattest state, Illinois. (~350ft maximum variation vs. ~950ft maximum variation)

Having said that, I always try to exploit the little inclines and notice a pretty sizable difference in efficiency even when going up our shallow grades.
