America’s Worst States To Live In

Post by Coyote »

These Are America’s 10 Worst States To Live In
We used science to determine which of these United States are the real pits.

How we crunched the numbers

We threw a lot of criteria at this one in order to get the best, most complete results possible. Using FBI crime data, the government census, Bureau of Labor Statistics and Sperling’s Best Places, this is the criteria we used:

Population Density (The lower the worse)
Highest Unemployment Rates
Adjusted Median Income (Median income adjusted for the cost of living)
High Housing Vacancy Rate
Education (Low expenditures per student and high Student Teacher Ratio)
Long Commute Time
High Crime
The Worst Weather

After analyzing all 50 U.S. states, we came up with this list as the 10 worst states in our nation. It turns out Mississippi is the worst state to live in the country:

1 Mississippi
2 Florida
3 Alabama
4 Arizona
5 Nevada
6 West Virginia
7 New Mexico
8 Tennessee
9 Georgia
10 Alaska

It's nice to see facts back up what we all already knew but just didn't have the proof.

Nobody's mentioning that Nebraska is #50 on that list?

NE is #50, which means by this ranking, it is the best state.
