Happiest U.S. States

[vmax]

Now I know why I run around with a shit eating grin on my face everyday...

 

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 index includes six types of well-being: overall evaluation of their lives, emotional health, physical health, healthy behaviors (such as whether a person smokes or exercises), and job satisfaction.

 

Here are the top 10 states and their average well-being scores (out of a possible 100 points):

 

1. Utah: 69.2

2. Hawaii: 68.2

3. Wyoming: 68

4. Colorado: 67.3

5. Minnesota: 67.3

6. Maryland: 67.1

7. Washington: 67.1

8. Massachusetts: 67

9. California: 67

10. Arizona: 66.8

Most of the people are old. How many old people do you know that are just super happy? They like to complain too much.

 

And the people that aren't old are annoyed with all the old people.
