3 States over

"He lives in California and she lives 3 States over (Texas). Obviously, he's gay and she's his beard". Can I use "over" in this example, or is it only ever used in the expression "next town over" and when the second place is ACTUALLY close to the first one (and not when you mean it as a joke)?
