I'm British - us Europeans often think of the USA being similar from coast to coast, but this video really hammers home how different the states are. It's mindblowing to me that some states have worse life expectancies than Bangladesh while others are richer than Switzerland!
Don’t be fooled by life expectancy data. The number given is an average of all the people. If one state had a large number of men dying from prostate cancer, the state average would be lower, but it would not affect women’s life expectancy. If there is a high homicide rate, the life expectancy would be lowered because most victims are young men, thereby lowering the life expectancy rate. On e again, women’s rate is unaffected. In a state with a high breast cancer death rate, men would not be affected. Averages of anything tell us very little especially when the things measured also differ. All in all, not a very informative video, but good for deterring foreigners.
I always culture/standard of living is always determined far more by cities rather than country/state/region. Even within these states living in some areas vs others make huge differences.
As a resident of northern South Carolina, it’s relatively peaceful here. Most of the bad things in our state are in the central region. The cost of living where I live is very affordable, and the Blue Ridge mountains are beautiful. I can definitely see why people are moving to South Carolina.
The military moved me to SC, and no, it’s not the worst places I’ve lived, but it’s a pretty crappy state. It’s overrun by Ohioans, outside of Columbia, Charleston, and Greenville, the state is straight trash and poor. People move here to move close to the beach, which is highly overrated. I can’t wait to leave (grow faster, grandkids)
Interesting ranking! Every city has unique aspects that make it special. Let's appreciate the diversity and work towards making each city the best it can be. Thanks for sharing this insightful perspective.
I get a lot of astonished gasps from friends when I tell them that I thought Hawaii was the most boring place I had been. Beautiful, etc…but just no ZING.
I wouldn’t live anywhere else!! Keep in mind they ranked states with big cities, where they live and poop in the street and there is no law enforcement, higher than Tn! Lol!
@ulfhednar_sentinel Truth! I live 30 minutes from Memphis therefore I listen to the local Memphis news every morning. Well, not every morning anymore. Now I mainly just listen to catch the weather because I got so sick of the nonstop news on shootings, murders, carjacking, robberies, etc. every single freaking day! I rarely go into Memphis. It is a real sh!t hole. I can't speak for Nashville because I have only been there twice.
I lived in Juneau Alaska for about five years with my parents. It did have its ups and downs but what made up for it was a glacier in our backyard, it’s situated in a temperate rainforest and it has some of the best fishing I’ve ever seen. I now live in New Orleans and the only good about it is that your food doesn’t take a week to get here like in Juneau and the downtown skyline. I’ve also lived in other states and was born in Tennessee so I’m more of a rural outdoor kid than a city kid
I can’t believe that my state made first! You should’ve also included the best small villages and towns in the nation, because everywhere I go in my town is super nice and always helpful.
@@FromHeretoThere I lived near Biloxi for a year just before and after hurricane Katrina. It was a good place and was really set back by it. Definitely a different world along the coast. I hear WV is one of the most beautiful states and have only driven thru there once. I hear they need jobs badly.
Having been a Mississippian since 1961 living in Gulfport and Biloxi all that time I appreciate the lack of state tax on my retirement income both SS and pension. While wages are low that can be balanced against cost of living which narrows the gap with higher wage states. Having traveled in my working life I decided I am quite happy here.
As someone from Nebraska, I think it’s easily the most consistent state. Everything is just… good! Small town are small and Omaha is Omaha. Could definitely have more to do at night… but there are some secret gems here and there

As a Hoosier (someone from Indiana) I can agree that you aren't missing much if you don't drive through it. However, we make up for it with a great capital city, Indianapolis. Also we are one of the largest and loudest fanbases for college sports (mostly basketball).
I would suggest that when ranking states, an important factor should be net migration rates. If people are moving into a state it should be higher on the list than states where people are leaving.
How do you figure ? Only reason people are moving there is because it’s cheap - why is it cheap? Because of all the issues and lack of opportunity. Theres a reason California, New York, and Washington are expensive - because people are willing to pay more to live there. No ones going to pay California prices in Kentucky, Mississippi, West Virginia, or even Texas (which is why they sell their 1 BR shack in California and get a mansion in Texas).
Migration wouldn’t be the greatest metric, the main reason why people leave states is cost of living (ie. California). If California/NYC had Texas prices people would FLOOD back in because they would rather live there than Texas. Cost of living is most certainly an important metric, but it’s not everything (who would want to live in Mississippi?) it’s better to look at it holistically.
if you do ever come here, i would recommend virginia, its a very pretty state, it has really nice people, and its great living if you find a good town thats not too tiny
If you are serious about emigrating, do research carefully. Political information is easy to get, but a serious quality of life assessment is another matter. If you are from a first world country with a high cost of living and a cosmopolitan culture, do not move to an economically depressed region…the politics and the culture will be a serious blow. Guns are everywhere in the USA…often in the hands of irresponsible people. Americans are messy…trash, potholes in the roads… But if you are realistic, prepared, and curious…you will not be bored.
@@babybeel8787If I were you I would search a tranquil spot in the southern Mediterranean Coast of your country......A peaceful living, without the outrageous prices or weekly mass shootings that now are part of the US living. 😊
You are indeed correct that Massholes support much of New Hampshire. Lived there for 2 decades and the fall foliage, lakes, mountains, etc attract tourists from the lower 3 states: MA, CT, & RI. I was shocked it was at number 2. I am a proud former NH resident. 🙂
Yeah there's a whole lot this video didn't take into account when it comes to quality of life like some of those high ranking states are the heaviest tax
I’m in Nevada, and I’m fine living here and working full time, but if I ever have a kid, I’d rather raise them in New England. I was born there, and my dad had to move us out because of the job market, but now? What state doesn’t want an experienced bacteriologist? Nevada is said to have all the big city problems and none of the big city benefits, but when they’re between projects, the roads and parking are great. But can you please mark the parking lots a bit better? Or reprogram the Garmins to guide you to them instead of to the front of the buildings? I lived in Virginia for a while, in the Hampton Roads area, and the commutes and schools were awful. But there’s tons of fun stuff to do on weekends (a zoo, museums, historical Jamestown and Williamsburg, amusement parks and water parks and a beach the whole family can enjoy), so I’d recommend a family vacation there. Bring bug repellent.
West Virginia here, I don’t know how old your information is, I assume really old. We’re experiencing tens of thousands of people coming to our state year after year for vacations, and outdoor adventures with many moving permanently. We have America’s newest national park, the best white water rafting on the east coast, ski resorts, superb fishing, an awesome lake known as the little Bahama of the north, super hiking trails, some of the longest ATV trails in America and much more among the oldest mountains in the world. Not to mention many high tech and manufacturing companies moving to “Almost Heaven”. You need to check current information.
I was in New Mexico recently for vacation, and seeing your placement of it felt so validating stg. I felt really uncomfortable there and I could never pin down why. Excited to see how Michigan ranks! Edit: omg as a Michigander that placement made me almost burst out laughing. I kinda wasn't expecting to see it so low, but it's a fair placement, and I'm glad you had good things to say about it
These rankings are good info but doesn't mean places are that bad. Mississippi for example has many nice places and is bogged down by education and city of Jackson being so bad.
Hi I’m Australian I have two things to say our National Rugby League is coming to Las Vegas on March 1 as well as I was surprised that California was that low it’s crazy
Hi, Mango Tango js wanted to know if you will ever post on the other channel as it was really was my childhood. Thank you for one of the best childhoods no matter what anyone say
I crunched some numbers in your rankings of states from 2020 to 2024, so here's the top 10 averages! 10 - Nebraska (8.25) 9 - Vermont (8) 8 - Hawaii (7.66) 7 - Colorado (7) 6 - Idaho (6.8) 5 - Minnesota (6.4) 4 - Washington (3.8) 3 - Massachusetts (3.4) 2 - Utah (2.6) 1 - New Hampshire (1.8) Great videos, can't wait for the next ones!
As we know statistics can be found in many places, however Las Vegas averages .3 inches of snow a year. Reno averages around 22 inches. .3 inches per year is not much snow.
Ya got it excellent bro🔥🔥🔥 There have been so many changes and it was hell enjoyable for me. Really sorry for Colorado being dropped by the crazy violent crime issue, but so glad to see Massachusetts come up on the top and how a old OG state still being so great and stable.
I worked in Boston for a California based firm. Some Boston airhead opined to me that Californians did not seem to WORK…and before giving a thought I spurted out…”Well, given the price of our real estate, Someone has to be pulling in some serious cash. One thing I did notice..,color, of any kind beyond an oh so tasteful tiny polka dot on a necktie, Boston’s well employed classes all seemed to be dressed for the funeral of a rich uncle..
I completely disagree with your assumption of arkansas.Ive live here almost 2 years now and moved here from the rich suburbs of chicago.Things here in arkansas are 1000 times better than northern illinois.Much better health care.Cheaper taxes.Cleaner air.Much cleaner water.Positive working environment.Traded a average of 42 inches of snow for 9 inches of snow.So this video makes absolutely zero cents.
@@s.hocker9222Your reading comprehension isn't great as well bud. He is from Illinois.. Not Arkansas.. 😂😂🤦♂️ If he has bad grammar it's because he is from Illinois, not Arkansas.
@@s.hocker9222If you seriously want to get really technical the entire United States education ranking is trash. We spend the most on education and get bumped down in ranking year after year. At this point it seriously doesn't matter what state your from.. Your BEHIND no matter what globally. So what's the point of trashing someone when we all fucking suck..
One of the highest cost of living, if not the highest in the whole country!.....That means it doesn't deserve to be the number one (and not even to be among the first 10!).😊
As an Arkansan, if you want to come here, go to northwest arkansas. The ozark mountains are pretty and it has a good economy, with many big businesses rooted there, including Walmart. Everywhere else in the state is basically just Mississippi and Louisiana.
Please please do an in depth state by state video series. Really go into it so people get the real life in those states. Ik it would take along time but i used to watch your videos ages ago and hope you would be inspired to do this type of video series
Just an FYI there is a typo on the Massachusetts and Utah number ranking. Massachusetts got first, but it has the number 3 on it 😂. Great video though!
Yeah i caught that at the end 😂 Spent 3 days editing the video and I double checked through most of it, but i guess i was tired and missed that last last one at the end. Hope you enjoyed!
The suburban houses built in the last 20-30 years look like this, but there are historic neighborhoods around central Phoenix that are very charming. Many of those homes are easily worth $1 million or more.
I’ve lived in Reno and would never go to Las Vegas. Pyramid Lake is beautiful . I’ve been here since 1997 and the health care is great and I was a nurse for 52 years. Lake Tahoe is beautiful and the economy is booming. Great Restaurants. Fine people . Lots of wilderness to explore.The Burning Man festival that was once judged has changed the City. The Black Rock desert is incredible and for one week out of the year Black Rock City has a post office and listed as a city. The art community is amazing and many of the art installations are purchased by the city of Reno and displayed for everyone to enjoy. I was born an raised in Wisconsin and Reno has attracted many from my home state. I lived in the North Woods for 13 years, close to the Upper Peninsula and Lake Superior. Yes , the winters were tough at times, but the North Woods area has some of the best cross country skiing trails in the US.
@@eclipticsonata1313 Economy is a very important factor. California would rank higher if it wasn't for the ridiculous cost of living and crazy politics. Texas would rank higher if it had California's weather and scenery.
As someone who has went to the Virgin Islands I can confirm that there are many cruise ships and every beach is packed with people everywhere but the water is so nice
Mississippi may rate last but as a move in I can tell you some of these things are true but I can also say it is one of the nicest places to live. The people are kind and caring and the weather is great except for July and August. You don’t have to be money hungry to live here. Comparing us to Bangladesh is just totally wrong.
In the Minnesota section, you mentioned that warm weather leads to longer lifespans, but MN is not the only exception! The Nordic countries are also among the happiest and healthiest places in the world, and MN isn't the only cold state that tops the list. Some people thrive in the cold, and if you combine an all-seasons-loving population with decent healthcare, a happy life follows.
100% agree! I’m a Minnesotan and I have a lot of pride in my state. I feel that Minnesota is really underrated in most categories. I love the people, the activities, the nature, the food, and the ever expanding policies that make this state really flourish
Yeah Minnesota is honestly similar to the Nordic countries and Canada in showing that with a good government, healthcare, and economy, weather isn't as much of a factor. Usually places with good weather have long life expectancies regardless of those factors however. For example: Spain, Italy, and Greece definitely aren't wealthy, but boast some of the happiest and healthiest lives!
@pelletrouge3032 It's not necessarily that MN's is so great, it's that pretty much every other state is worse 😔 The US doesn't put a lot of priority on this.

As a Hoosier (someone from Indiana) I can agree that you aren't missing much if you don't drive through it. However, we make up for it with a great capital city, Indianapolis. Also we are one of the largest and loudest fanbases for college sports (mostly basketball).
As another Hoosier, I forgot Indiana was a place for a second.
Indiana makes up for it in a lot of ways, especially with all of their lakes & rivers & their festivals!
Indianapolis is the powerhouse economy of the state, but it's kind of a boring city. Not much tourism there.
I would suggest that when ranking states, an important factor should be net migration rates. If people are moving into a state it should be higher on the list than states where people are leaving.
How do you figure ? Only reason people are moving there is because it’s cheap - why is it cheap? Because of all the issues and lack of opportunity. Theres a reason California, New York, and Washington are expensive - because people are willing to pay more to live there. No ones going to pay California prices in Kentucky, Mississippi, West Virginia, or even Texas (which is why they sell their 1 BR shack in California and get a mansion in Texas).
@@wayoutwest3009And another reasons: retirees. No offense, but they are not helping those aforementioned states to become economically better.
Migration wouldn’t be the greatest metric, the main reason why people leave states is cost of living (ie. California). If California/NYC had Texas prices people would FLOOD back in because they would rather live there than Texas. Cost of living is most certainly an important metric, but it’s not everything (who would want to live in Mississippi?) it’s better to look at it holistically.
You did a fantastic job with that list,pro’s and con’s in 20 seconds
An update we've been waiting for. ❤
Thanks for the video, I love the US and its states, considering living there when I have the money. For now, I'll just be watching your videos haha
Haha where are you from?
@@FromHeretoThere Paris, France ! Thanks again for the quality content !
if you do ever come here, i would recommend virginia, its a very pretty state, it has really nice people, and its great living if you find a good town thats not too tiny
If you are serious about emigrating, do research carefully. Political information is easy to get, but a serious quality of life assessment is another matter. If you are from a first world country with a high cost of living and a cosmopolitan culture, do not move to an economically depressed region…the politics and the culture will be a serious blow.
Guns are everywhere in the USA…often in the hands of irresponsible people. Americans are messy…trash, potholes in the roads…
But if you are realistic, prepared, and curious…you will not be bored.
@@babybeel8787If I were you I would search a tranquil spot in the southern Mediterranean Coast of your country......A peaceful living, without the outrageous prices or weekly mass shootings that now are part of the US living. 😊
This is very subjective. Depends what you think is important and what your willing to look the other way on
Very interesting video, greetings from my island Puerto Rico! 🫡😎😊
amazing ranking all 55 states & territories
You are indeed correct that Massholes support much of New Hampshire. Lived there for 2 decades and the fall foliage, lakes, mountains, etc attract tourists from the lower 3 states: MA, CT, & RI. I was shocked it was at number 2. I am a proud former NH resident. 🙂

Amazing video - so much work to produce it.
Amazing video with so much useful contents - well done!
Excellent video, very educational & very enjoyable, well done
Yeah there's a whole lot this video didn't take into account when it comes to quality of life like some of those high ranking states are the heaviest tax
I’m in Nevada, and I’m fine living here and working full time, but if I ever have a kid, I’d rather raise them in New England. I was born there, and my dad had to move us out because of the job market, but now? What state doesn’t want an experienced bacteriologist? Nevada is said to have all the big city problems and none of the big city benefits, but when they’re between projects, the roads and parking are great. But can you please mark the parking lots a bit better? Or reprogram the Garmins to guide you to them instead of to the front of the buildings?
I lived in Virginia for a while, in the Hampton Roads area, and the commutes and schools were awful. But there’s tons of fun stuff to do on weekends (a zoo, museums, historical Jamestown and Williamsburg, amusement parks and water parks and a beach the whole family can enjoy), so I’d recommend a family vacation there. Bring bug repellent.
West Virginia here, I don’t know how old your information is, I assume really old. We’re experiencing tens of thousands of people coming to our state year after year for vacations, and outdoor adventures with many moving permanently. We have America’s newest national park, the best white water rafting on the east coast, ski resorts, superb fishing, an awesome lake known as the little Bahama of the north, super hiking trails, some of the longest ATV trails in America and much more among the oldest mountains in the world. Not to mention many high tech and manufacturing companies moving to “Almost Heaven”. You need to check current information.
You should do one with Canadian provinces included to see where they end up in the sea of states
Ohhh that'd be interesting!
I recently moved to Tennessee from Canada. I absolutely love it here!
@@BbTenn based, I might move to usa too, canada is becoming a mess
I always love the narration 😅😅😅 love every video BTW
agree
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoy then Daryl!
I am glad you touched on the mass construction here in Las Vegas.
As a cab driver it is frustrating.
Super cool video, full of contents
super cool ranking
I was in New Mexico recently for vacation, and seeing your placement of it felt so validating stg. I felt really uncomfortable there and I could never pin down why.
Excited to see how Michigan ranks!
Edit: omg as a Michigander that placement made me almost burst out laughing. I kinda wasn't expecting to see it so low, but it's a fair placement, and I'm glad you had good things to say about it
Personally I love new mexico and I've never felt uncomfortable there. To each their own
These rankings are good info but doesn't mean places are that bad. Mississippi for example has many nice places and is bogged down by education and city of Jackson being so bad.
Amazing video 2024 - hope more people will watch this educational video
Amazing video, watch again
Hi I’m Australian I have two things to say our National Rugby League is coming to Las Vegas on March 1 as well as I was surprised that California was that low it’s crazy
So you come from the land down under.
Where women glow and then thunder
Very educational video I must say!
Hi, Mango Tango js wanted to know if you will ever post on the other channel as it was really was my childhood. Thank you for one of the best childhoods no matter what anyone say
Super cool video, very enjoyable not just educational
Understanding diverse perspectives on states and territories enriches our understanding. Thanks for sharing this comprehensive analysis.
As a New Hampshirite, I can confirm it is a pretty good life up here
How is it for kids? Education and healthcare??
@@altanbekbatirhan8140Also good too
@@nonameguy3665 thank you for your answer.
Great video
Witty and insightful.
I genuine laughed out loud.
I crunched some numbers in your rankings of states from 2020 to 2024, so here's the top 10 averages!
10 - Nebraska (8.25)
9 - Vermont (8)
8 - Hawaii (7.66)
7 - Colorado (7)
6 - Idaho (6.8)
5 - Minnesota (6.4)
4 - Washington (3.8)
3 - Massachusetts (3.4)
2 - Utah (2.6)
1 - New Hampshire (1.8)
Great videos, can't wait for the next ones!
You mentioned almost no snow in Las Vegas. Here in the better city, Reno, we got 6-8 inches of snow last night.
Yeah Reno definitely gets a fair amount as it's right near Lake Tahoe. It usually only snows once every 5-10years in Vegas
I was in San Diego when snowed so it can happen almost anywhere.
As we know statistics can be found in many places, however Las Vegas averages .3 inches of snow a year. Reno averages around 22 inches. .3 inches per year is not much snow.
Great video, very interesting & very well done
Thank you for going through the list at such a fast rate. That made watching very much easier...
Super cool ranking job. Next video will be "Ranking many countries in Asia"?
We miss you mango thanks for shaping my childhood.
Ya got it excellent bro🔥🔥🔥
There have been so many changes and it was hell enjoyable for me.
Really sorry for Colorado being dropped by the crazy violent crime issue, but so glad to see Massachusetts come up on the top and how a old OG state still being so great and stable.
Thanks dude! Glad you enjoyed the video :)
I’m glad this is back
It’s fascinating/ironic how the wealthiest states work the least. Great video!
Work smarter, not harder, I guess? Thanks!
I noticed that too.
I worked in Boston for a California based firm. Some Boston airhead opined to me that Californians did not seem to WORK…and before giving a thought I spurted out…”Well, given the price of our real estate, Someone has to be pulling in some serious cash.
One thing I did notice..,color, of any kind beyond an oh so tasteful tiny polka dot on a necktie, Boston’s well employed classes all seemed to be dressed for the funeral of a rich uncle..
useful content
I completely disagree with your assumption of arkansas.Ive live here almost 2 years now and moved here from the rich suburbs of chicago.Things here in arkansas are 1000 times better than northern illinois.Much better health care.Cheaper taxes.Cleaner air.Much cleaner water.Positive working environment.Traded a average of 42 inches of snow for 9 inches of snow.So this video makes absolutely zero cents.
Arkansas is one of the least educated states in the nation. Based on your grammar, it's not surprising at all.
This guy has a clear political bias Against red states.
@@s.hocker9222Your reading comprehension isn't great as well bud. He is from Illinois.. Not Arkansas.. 😂😂🤦♂️ If he has bad grammar it's because he is from Illinois, not Arkansas.
@@s.hocker9222If you seriously want to get really technical the entire United States education ranking is trash. We spend the most on education and get bumped down in ranking year after year. At this point it seriously doesn't matter what state your from.. Your BEHIND no matter what globally. So what's the point of trashing someone when we all fucking suck..
You failed to mention how the cost of living and housing in Massachusetts is pretty high!
Plus, there's the Massholes!
@@KOrnhOliO1 yeah but there's aholes everywhere and they all have their own breed of jerkdom.
One of the highest cost of living, if not the highest in the whole country!.....That means it doesn't deserve to be the number one (and not even to be among the first 10!).😊
As an Arkansan, if you want to come here, go to northwest arkansas. The ozark mountains are pretty and it has a good economy, with many big businesses rooted there, including Walmart. Everywhere else in the state is basically just Mississippi and Louisiana.
Definitely the one bright spot in the state!
They will understand how good arkansas is.They just assume that south arkansas is all of arkansas.Northwest arkansas is the best.
Amazing video, we all love it
Please please do an in depth state by state video series. Really go into it so people get the real life in those states. Ik it would take along time but i used to watch your videos ages ago and hope you would be inspired to do this type of video series
Just an FYI there is a typo on the Massachusetts and Utah number ranking. Massachusetts got first, but it has the number 3 on it 😂. Great video though!
Yeah i caught that at the end 😂 Spent 3 days editing the video and I double checked through most of it, but i guess i was tired and missed that last last one at the end. Hope you enjoyed!
As an arizonan, beige is the only color you'll see here. All our houses look like boxes of old El paso.
Ha, ha, ha!....Does that mean the multicolor LGTB flags aren't flying there? 😅
@@JERios-wv8lx I wish.... lol.
The suburban houses built in the last 20-30 years look like this, but there are historic neighborhoods around central Phoenix that are very charming. Many of those homes are easily worth $1 million or more.
12:24 Kansas has the _less_ cool *Kansas City* 😂
_very_ well played, sir
Interesting, I’m glad how the creator added us territories. 3:24, I would have never known that if it weren’t for this video
12:32, KC, MO may be more fun, but never will it be better than the KS side, KS side is filled with rich people, low crime, and great schools
Yeah, they're often forgot about, but still part of the US!
How come they aren’t states yet? Hawaii is an island, yet it’s a state@@FromHeretoThere
“Since Vermonters shop locally…”
They don’t. They go to NH to do their shopping due to no sales tax there
I’ve lived in Reno and would never go to Las Vegas. Pyramid Lake is beautiful . I’ve been here since 1997 and the health care is great and I was a nurse for 52 years. Lake Tahoe is beautiful and the economy is booming. Great Restaurants. Fine people . Lots of wilderness to explore.The Burning Man festival that was once judged has changed the City. The Black Rock desert is incredible and for one week out of the year Black Rock City has a post office and listed as a city. The art community is amazing and many of the art installations are purchased by the city of Reno and displayed for everyone to enjoy. I was born an raised in Wisconsin and Reno has attracted many from my home state. I lived in the North Woods for 13 years, close to the Upper Peninsula and Lake Superior. Yes , the winters were tough at times, but the North Woods area has some of the best cross country skiing trails in the US.
Nice to see Nebraska made the top 10.
It's a great state!
Yawn😅
Basically all the cold states are better than the warm states, and the average temperature states are average.
I hate the cold.
He thinks California is better than Texas... Dudes crazy
@@lane1776 California IS better than Texas, just not by much. They're both mid, they just got a ton of people which makes their economies look huge.
@@eclipticsonata1313 Economy is a very important factor. California would rank higher if it wasn't for the ridiculous cost of living and crazy politics. Texas would rank higher if it had California's weather and scenery.
As someone who has went to the Virgin Islands I can confirm that there are many cruise ships and every beach is packed with people everywhere but the water is so nice
Wow thats enticing thanks eh ducky?
Can’t believe someone tried arguing that Boston was more dangerous than other US cities
It's definitely one if, if not THE safest big cities.
Knowing state qualities helps retirement planning. Always good to weigh options for a fulfilling retirement.
Nebraska checking in!
Thanks for giving Nebraska some love
Mississippi may rate last but as a move in I can tell you some of these things are true but I can also say it is one of the nicest places to live. The people are kind and caring and the weather is great except for July and August. You don’t have to be money hungry to live here. Comparing us to Bangladesh is just totally wrong.
It depends on what part of the state i would guess
In the Minnesota section, you mentioned that warm weather leads to longer lifespans, but MN is not the only exception! The Nordic countries are also among the happiest and healthiest places in the world, and MN isn't the only cold state that tops the list. Some people thrive in the cold, and if you combine an all-seasons-loving population with decent healthcare, a happy life follows.
100% agree! I’m a Minnesotan and I have a lot of pride in my state. I feel that Minnesota is really underrated in most categories. I love the people, the activities, the nature, the food, and the ever expanding policies that make this state really flourish
Yeah Minnesota is honestly similar to the Nordic countries and Canada in showing that with a good government, healthcare, and economy, weather isn't as much of a factor. Usually places with good weather have long life expectancies regardless of those factors however. For example: Spain, Italy, and Greece definitely aren't wealthy, but boast some of the happiest and healthiest lives!
@@FromHeretoThereI still don’t think MN healthcare is that great. I haven’t lived there for a little while though so lmk if I’m wrong
Considering that Minnesota largely _is_ Scandinavia based on historical immigration patterns, it's not much of a surprise.
@pelletrouge3032 It's not necessarily that MN's is so great, it's that pretty much every other state is worse 😔 The US doesn't put a lot of priority on this.
Can't believe this anymore
It is a dreamer's review.
