- In the U.S., each state has a personality of its own, and some states are known as being more welcoming than others.
- Attempting to quantify how friendly or unfriendly a state is, however, poses a challenge, but BestLife attempted to do just that with a new state ranking.
- Using a variety of data sources, the site crunched the numbers and came up with a list of the most unfriendly states in the country.
Is your state friendly? You might think so, based purely on where you live within that state, and the overall impression you have of your neighbors and other locals. Quantifying something like friendliness poses a huge challenge, as there isn't a lot of data related specifically to how kind or unkind a state's populous is. BestLife did its best to mine some metrics and come up with a ranking, and it might surprise you.
As the site explains, they gathered data from a number of different sources, including the amount of volunteering that happens in each state, the violent crime rate, and rankings from travel sites that direct people to the friendliest destinations. Census data was also included, revealing population changes that may serve as an indicator of how happy people are to live in a given state. The result is a top-20 list of the most unfriendly states in the country.
