Which state in the US is the worst to live in? Why?
-
Leave New Mexico off that list. While not perfect, they sure have been knocking it out of the park recently. It's stunningly beautiful too
Before or after the Breaking Bad era? (/s)

Texas, with runner ups California and Florida
California? You need to tell me your dealer, because I'd like to have an ounce of what you're smoking. At least we give our citizens healthcare.
-
Florida. Heat, humidity, stench of water from the sprinkler systems, lousy coffee from the crappy drinking water, most jobs literally don't allow you to work OT. Many only hire 32 hour people. Terrible drivers, especially all the Qtip bitches that should've stopped driving 20 years ago. Redneck Nation. Massive POS politics.
Fuck Florida.
Not even gonna mention that the coastal areas've been dredging sand at night to keep it from sliding back into the ocean for decades... 🤮
Let. It. Die. Already.

Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi are all shit holes honestly same goes for Houston TX as well. I'm not saying my state of Oklahoma is any better. I lived in California for 4 years and kill to go back however it's just too expensive
wrote last edited by [email protected]I hear ya. PacNW is my home (not childhood) and my heart tears up just thinking of what it would take to get back. 🥹

Arizona is also beautiful. Unfortunately, it also has Pheonix.
And Kari Lake.

You can't just fire off an entirely subjective opinion and not back it up with anecdotes.
It's been 12hrs. I'm thinking they intend to.
FWIW, I agree with you. -
BTW, in the book, she hacked off a foot with an axe and cauterized it with a blowtorch.

I think all states probably have ok cities in them somewhere, and that it depends on your preferences but I would never live in Alaska.
And all states have downsides too.
Mississippi and Oklahoma have the worst schools. Florida and Texas have crazy politicians. Wyoming doesn't want you there. Colorado has angry ranchers and pretentious yuppies. California has Bakersfield.Urban areas are typically more "blue" as they're populated by people who can read, more or less.

right now, to the rest of the world it would seem that it’s the contiguous united ones…
AK is rolled into that, NGL. Leave Hawaii alone, though.

My smart watch likes to remind me frequently that I had a "stressful" day and to try to do better tomorrow. I'm like "bitch this is my baseline. Lower your expectations."
Judgy li'l shit, ain't it.

Just, not homes. Baby steps?

Almost certainly Mississippi
It's not up for debate. It's Mississippi.

Oklafuckinghoma. Heat, tornadoes, ice storms, earthquakes, hail and some of the dumbest, most entitled Jesus-humping maga fucks in the country.
And gonna be in the 100s next week here in Tulsa.

Florida used to be black on Erin's trans safety map. It was literally its own "DO NOT GO HERE" category. Unfortunately the only thing that has changed is that it's no longer alone.

IMO - Texas, while places like Mississippi, Arkansas, and Oklahoma always rank below, I believe Texas is actively trying to kill itself. Those other states are poorer and more rural. Texas has the resources and money to be one of the most prosperous states. Yet, they keep voting for Greg Abbott (aka piss baby), Ken Paxton, and Ted Cruz. People there are so brainwashed that they believe anyone who is not an uber republican will come and make all the frog gay, let kids poop in liter-boxes, and give all their money to drug addicts. It's just sad. I finally just gave up on trying to make any difference there and left for the sake of my kids.
A perfect example is my mother-in-law who HATES Greg Abbott. She blames him for leaving the state for dead during snowmageddon. So she just refuses to vote in Governor elections.

I'm not from the states so not really qualified to comment but I would have thought low taxes and large population (including diverse cities like Housten and true blue areas like Austin) would work in its favour.
Other places in the South seem to have all the downsides you mention but none of the positives.

Really enjoyed learning about NY queer culture by watching Paris is Burning so thought I'd check out Mississippi Burning to see how marginalised communities express themselves in the South... oh

FWIW, I agree with you.At this point I'm certain the guy is from Kentucky, and just proved his point like a boss.

Yes, Texas is actually purple, but it is gerrymander so bad there is no way to win. A perfect example is the district I used to live in, Texas 26. Is was basically Denton County with a little tail going into the Tarrant County to keep it red. Then Democrats got close in a couple of elections. So they redrew the map to cut out the city of Denton, which is a city with a huge liberal arts college. Then they extended it north and west into more republican areas.
Meanwhile the city of Denton was added to the 13th district, which is 40,000 square miles and extends all the way to the panhandle. People in the city would have to drive 325 miles just to visit their representatives office.
Texas 26 Before 2021
After 2021
