Happy States to live in

Posted by betty Tuesday, November 10, 2009 at 9:56 am

I read this today and I totally agree! Though you might not be able to run away from your problems, moving to another state could be good for the soul. New research suggests U.S. states with wealthier, better educated and more tolerant residents are also happier on average.  The reasoning is that wealthy states can provide infrastructure and so it’s easier for residents to get their needs met. In addition, states with a greater proportion of artists and gays would also be places where residents can freely express themselves.  Here are the top 10 states and their average well-being scores (out of a possible 100 points): Utah: 69.2, Hawaii: 68.2, Wyoming: 68, Colorado: 67.3, Minnesota: 67.3, Maryland: 67.1, Washington: 67.1, Massachusetts: 67, California: 67, Arizona: 66.8.
