Ahaha :D So true. I remember hearing a call-in show on the radio asking whether New Yorkers or New Jerseyans were worse drivers. It got really heated. Sometimes our two states are like siblings fighting over toys and who's stinkier. :D

Wise words! Because states are just areas of land with bounded by man made demarcation or either a natural made border.. populated by the citizens thereof. and just as there is good and bad, success and failure in each of us - that goes for states too - I have noticed some with zero violence but on the other hand, nearly unbearable weather! Cant win em all! :)
I think a lot of times the reason people in poor states are so happy is that they realize that a person does not have to have "things" to be happy. Friends and family is what counts.
America is such a joke😢 sky high prices rent out of control. Rich people got us paying for insurance\ Me and wife pay 3 grand a yr just to drive down the street😮 house insurance is okay. Auto insurance should be optional. Now motorists are giving all their money to the insurance companies\ Ripoff😢 pretty soon everybody be living on the streets😢 🇺🇸 USA had turned into a BAD JOKE😢😢
Hate to be negative all the time 😢baby boomers really got screwed over by rich people. Got rid of good union jobs 😮 now unless youre rich you'll never have anything😢😢 yes this 🇺🇸 USA suks😰😰😰

Hi Nick, love your videos! Wondering if you can make an updated version on this including updated data and add a criteria for homeless rates? I think that has a big impact on communities. TY!
@Monica Murphy. Quality fruit and veggies hard to come by in some states or too expensive for some. So people get malnutrition from eating lots of rice and potatoes.
California has the highest murders out of every state and probably the highest taxes and definitely the most corrupt politicians. Oh yea and bums on every corner... everyone is leaving cali but for some reason it’s not on the list.
Not sure where you live but if it is a red state, you survive with our money. So chuckle all you want. Red states are just not very well educated and thus poor. Enjoy.
I moved from Minnesota (on your best states list) to Tennessee and I couldn't be happier. I make the same money here but with the much lower cost of living my quality of life is substantially better. I can actually enjoy my hobbies now.
My Mom, Step-Dad, brother and sister-in-law lived in Kingsport, TN for a couple of years, they ended up moving back to Southern Illinois, they said, the jobs didn't pay very well and their homes were much more expensive than they'd ever seen. My brother and sister-in-law are educated with degrees but weren't satisfied with pay versus careers.
giovanni scipione because Florida is a GREAT place to live. Warm all year round, tons of things to do, beautiful scenery. Leave the worst 10 places up north where it’s freezing cold.
"You can't disagree with the methodology" This methodology is rather flimsy and assumes that you share some of the creator's very personal preferences. 1. How are low home prices an inherent disadvantage? Many people, especially young people, consider affordability to be a plus. High cost does not necessarily mean high quality. In many jurisdictions, it's more a reflection of local/state government's burdensome land-use, zoning, and architectural standards and the way in which it artificially restricts housing supply. 2. Why does the creator assume that most people would agree with him that low population density is a negative (many people find it to be a plus)? 3. Tax burden is not factored into the analysis. Median income not accounting for tax burden is an asinine statistic when assessing the "quality" of a state. People care about how much they actually get to keep. 4. You have to be careful when you interpret state-level crime, poverty, etc statistics. These rates can very wildly from one part of a state to another, and jurisdictions with very high (but unusual compared to the rest of the state) rates can throw off the aggregate statistics. Winsorization of a data set broken down by county or by city (although that would not account for unincorporated areas) might be appropriate in some cases (possibly accompanied by an explanation of what factors might have led outlier cities/towns/counties to have such high crime/poverty/etc rates, and possible reasons why this may or may not be a reflection on the quality of the state as a whole).
Well said... This seems to be put together by a brainwashed college student mentioning random facts that fit a liberal bias. I'm sure his political science teacher is proud of him.
We have a cheap homes in Oklahoma but the problem is the wages when you make low wages you still struggle paying them if you look at Most states the higher the minimum wage the higher the housing it's all the same you'll struggle with low wages with low housing in a way it all balances out the rich get richer and the poor get poorer
@@NickJohnson it's a long story. we border mexico, we have a terrible drug problem, crime problem, we're the most impoverished state, and the education system is awful. there is nothing to do, no community events, no nice restaurants, no parks, no museums, literally nothing to do. it's a town full of nothing. the people suck, it's a sad place. However we have such a rich amazing culture and beautiful scenery but it gets overlooked due to the fact that we're a shitty state.
I'm from Louisiana and moved from there to New Mexico because of the high crime rate back in Louisiana which in my opinion New Mexico is bad in a lot of areas but all in all more peaceful of a place to live then living in da nawf 4 cities while I lived in Louisiana held murder capital of that state Baton Rouge, Shreveport, New Orleans ( had the highest and rank second in the u.s. average at being murder capital ) and then where i was born and raised Monroe aka Murder Roe, Roe City, Bloody Roe and the list of nick names carry on and on smdh most people blame it's crime on it being a fairly black dominated state with Angolan and Haitian people and the fact that back in 2014 the news ranked us as having the highest incarceration rate in America which it has dropped way low last I heard I love my home state always will just murder out of hand in the south more south states are known for high murder rates then any where else in America in the south life has no value I grew up hearing one thing one phrase murder makes you famous down here you eat or be eaten and that's the rules that life I left behind and my two girls will not be raised in a place full of such hate and ignorance New Mexico is a way better place to me then my home state is here I raise my girls away from the violence back home so in gist there may not be much to do in the state of New Mexico but at least people ain't running around here murdering others just because Murder makes you famous basis this place is really nice and has beautiful scenery to see and I have enjoyed 2 years of the most relaxing days of my life here so New Mexico in my mind is a really nice place to escape
Michigan should also be on this list too because cities like Detroit and Flint have declined severely both economics wise and morally since changing times have impacted the population big time with many moving out for better jobs
You clearly haven’t seen New York outside of the New York City, it’s quite beautiful and a great place to live, Illinois isn’t terrible either or at least not bad enough to make this list, California is doing quite bad tho
California was once a wonderful place to live! The only people who really enjoy it now are pocketbook liberals and those who work for the state! Lots of things to do here! Beautiful topography and climate! But the politics here absolutely sucks!
Epic Rants I have experienced that my dad car doors won’t open the worse mistake we went there during summer and it ruined our flipdown tv so now we don’t want to use it anymore back in the day when we went there and also it was cold last I went there during fall man in California isn’t bad at night time
This. Plus some of Phoenix is pretty crappy. The city is just too big, traffic is bad, the air is bad, some dumpy suburbs, or clone track home neighborhoods, etc. But a lot of Arizona is beautiful and far more diverse than people realize. Lots of neat towns dot the state as well.

I live in New Mexico and hope videos like this keep others from moving here, lol. We may not be rich and have our problems, but it is one of the most interesting states to live in. Don't tell anyone, but the climate is damn near perfect. Not too hot, not too cold.
@@mattb9054 --- YES it is! PLEASE, PLEASE do NOT move to Texas. Please tell all those folks from California that Texas sucks and they should move anywhere but here! We have a new motto here it is " Welcome to Texas, now go the hell home!"
From what I've heard, you only need a high school diploma to become a police officer. If you have a college degree you are overqualified for the job. Wow!
Having a college degree doesn't really mean more intelligent....I've met people with very little education that was really intelligent and people with multiple degrees that was dumber then a rock.
The ten worst states are, 1.California 2, New York 3. New Jersey 4. Illinois 5 Connecticut "The larger the government, the smaller the citizen" All the States above are "Ruled" by big Liberal governments and are the least free states!
Illinois sucks in cook county because of corrupt libs. But the rest of the state is red and still sucks lol. Problem is not one or the other, both suck and don't actually care about real freedom or the common man
I will take every one of those states over Massachusetts, Rhode. Island, Connecticut, New York, Kalifornia or Illinois. The whole ranking is ridiculous. That state is horrible because it has low paying jobs and low cost of living. Right, because living in Boston or New York is great. That is where income is higher but so is the cost of living. So much higher that instead of living in a 1,000 sq/ft mobile home you can only afford a 300 sq/ft apartment.
You got that right!! New York with there baby murders, and freedom haters in the state legislature. And don't get me started on the People's Republic of Californistan!!😤
Nick you should make a video of all the places you personally like out of every state.. show us the best of the worst lol .. but not of a research but of personal experience
It's bad enough when an ad runs before the video starts; but when you're watching a video and a ad pops up in the middle of it, well, it irks me to no end, TH-cam, STOP IT!!!
I’m surprised West Virginia (Home State) isn’t here. Most things associated with WV are just drugs and poverty, which is true in many places. It’s beautiful though :)
Sly Po I actually am considering moving to WV :) I respect and admire the state and its kind, hardworking people and your state does have so much to offer including affordable cost of living, lovely sceneries, kind people, and so many fun and healthy recreational activities for the fam :) I want you to I care about our brothers and sisters in WV, you guys rock! 👍 😁 And I'm hoping maybe one day to become a West Virginian myself! Love from Connecticut :)
Your only option for Mexican food in Arizona is Phoenix? What the hell you talking about. Come to Tucson, the Mexican food capital of the west. You need a fact checker.
These people need some serious fact checking. You can't swing a dead cat in southern AZ without hitting a real Mexican Restaurant with amazing Sonoran beef.
For Authentic Mexican food go behind the resorts in Cozumel to the third world, one can not only "go back in time" to where there was no electricity or running water, but can get an authentic tortilla made with flour and water made in an oven in the front yard of a house made out of cardboard!
The bias in this video is pretty evident. The stats mentioned depend on the sources they were retrieved from. The cost of living was never mentioned. You can do better.
such a good channel, i both am entertained and learn from your vids, plus i love travelling and your vids make me want to explore the good and bad of this country and i appreciate that you don't hold back from the truth!
Except as he disses the south he can't seem to reconcile why millions of Yankees have migrated to the south over the past 40 years. I have never ever heard one person in my entire life say their dream wad to live in the north. Not one. They vote for cesspool cities and then run down here to create the same crap.
I live in Los Angeles. The LA times says CA is #1 in poverty. #1 in wage disparity. We have the highest taxes, a housing shortage { Tiny one bedroom apartment in Silverlake $2995.00 a month } High crime, overcrowded schools. Los Angeles has 31, 513 homeless people nightly. We have the forth worst commute in America at 28.9 minutes taken by 84.2% of the population. CA has 7 of the top 10 cities with the worst air quality. People poop all over the sidewalks in Los Angeles, San Diego and San Francisco. # California! Worst state to live in. Trust me.
@@TheAncientOne40 Right there with you. I had a large extended family in CA. My siblings and I are all 2nd generation Californians. Out of 60 extended family members zero remain.
I've flown to LA 4 times a year for the last 15 years, and it has gone from being a fun, laid back city, to a borderline third world city. Pretty sad. I can't speak for the rest of Cali, but if LA is any indication, the trends not looking good.
I lived in Sevierville, Tennessee for 5 years and had no problems with crime. My husband left the keys in the front door several times and no one attempted to break in! AND we lived in a trailer park! And as far as South Carolina, I grew up there, in Greenville. Unfortunately, that has gone downhill A LOT as far as crime. It's sad to see my home state the way it is today. Spartanburg is now called Murderburg and Anderson is just as bad. South Carolina does have very beautiful towns, though. The one good thing I can say about Greenville is that the jobs are plentiful and they pay well. More businesses are moving in all the time, too. So if someone is looking for a job, they will find one.
Miles of beaches, one of the greatest economies in the U.S., tech industry, fantastic fusions of Asian and Latino cuisine, physically fit people: how dare they!
Tennessee is bad??? I was actually advised to move there after graduating college. California has more crime than Arizona......and I'm still puzzled why California isn't on the list🤤
April Harmony - I hope you’re not thinking of taking that advice. I’ve lived in 7 states, in 4 regions of the country,and Tennessee was my least favorite, by far. There are other beautiful states with much more to offer.
T306 41 - WTF?! April wasn’t being nasty; she simply made a comment. Don’t add to the vitriol so pervasive online today. It’s unnecessary and doesn’t get us anywhere! And calling any woman, any time, the C-word is *not* OK, even indirectly! (btw, I’m a Democrat.) Fake news? I’ll say what I always say: back it up and cite your sources.
T306 41 ok....why do I HAVE to be all of that??? You do realize that there are BOTH conservative democrats and republicans, RIGHT? I'm actually a moderately conservative independent for your information but it's fine, go off if you want to.
SkiingIsMyHappyPlace Bliss you know what ::HUGS:: thank you very much. I wasn't trying to be nasty at all. Usually if I am it's b/c someone was nasty to me first or something balantenly goes against my beliefs and even then I just give my opinion. Some ppl just like to attack but get upset when snap right back at them smh. Again thank you. I just heard that Tennessee was a good place to go after graduating college. I'm not done with college yet at all but I'm predicting that I will be single and without kids so I want to move somewhere that will allow me to jump start my life. I also heard that that the cost of living was low so that attractive to me.
Mr. Mappy is right on when he says that Tennessee is number 3 in violence in America. Thanks Memphis in being part of this. Nashville is right up there too thanks to gang and drug activity in the bad parts.
The only good thing to come out of il. Is Chicago dogs, Chicago style pizza and, well nothing else really. Sorry to say moved out there and everybody i have met from there is two faced and out for them selves.
It sucks here man, taxes are high, businesses are leaving everywhere, crime is high, gangs are everywhere, I don’t even live in Chicago, I live in southern Illinois and these are the statistics, also with the COVID-19 going around and all other business shut down, things are worse, our dipshit of a governor prohibited the selling of flowers yesterday, crippling big plant base businesses, along with other businesses are only aloud to sell certain amounts of food on the menu, shits bad, all the malls in my area have closed down(before the corona).

I'd like to inform you that in Mississippi, the reason that wages are so low is because the cost of living is low. We have resources to provide locally so nothing is really expensive here. A person working at McDonalds here can live a 3 bedroom house comfortably... Ask my brother lol

Why isn't California on this list? People are leaving California in droves. Many of these people are coming to Nevada and other states. There are so many homeless in California that it's scary.
Screaming Dean - everybody is exaggerating the exodus of California!! I’m a Republican, pro Trump & I’m not moving, and neither are millions of others. I live in central California, own a beautiful home that’s doubled in value since I bought it in 2015, so I’m very happy - you can’t beat the California weather either - lol - most of the homeless are drug or alcohol addicts, too damn lazy to work , but because of our great weather, many don’t want to leave CA - I was surprised Nevada & Arizona were on this list. As for those other states, I would never live there, but the ppl are friendly when I’ve visited - the Wall will be completed!! MAGA 2020🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 America the Beautiful
@@billwhitis9997 I'm a liberal, sir. And people have been leaving California for years. I've been planning to leave California for Nevada for years too. The property taxes are too high in California. The property taxes in Nevada are much lower. There have been a lot of people who haven't been able to pay the high rent and or mortgage payments. I've even looked into living in my van to avoid paying so much money. And as far as the weather goes, I've been to Nevada and the heat and cold there are both dry as opposed to the moist climate of California.
@@madambutterfly7513 The exodus from CA is real and the homeless aren't just drug addicts. This is what happens when you overtax "the rich" while becoming a haven for "dreamers." The rich (middle class) decide to leave, and that gives you a smaller and smaller tax base. And if they can't make you leave rural CA that way, they'll try to mess with your beautiful weather and cause or neglect fires to get state aid. People in neighboring states are even starting to complain about all the "migrants" from CA.
@@screamingdean5 You should really look into the actual results of too much socialism plus open (state) borders plus high taxes. People are leaving in droves, to the point where people in Nevada are complaining about it in their town meetings. I know, because I've been transcribing their town meetings for state compilations.
Mississippi, it’s The fattest state The most illiterate state The state with the lowest life expectancy The highest infant mortality rate The poorest state And more I’m too lazy to put more
I don't usually give much thought to these "state ranking" comparisons but I have to give Nick here a bit of credit pointing out that there are good things in some of these states. Making individual choices based on a collective prespective you will have a very hard time finding a good fit.
Living in the woods of Mississippi is okay but Insurance is high priced 😮 So when are our great leaders gonna do something about Crime,Poverty,and Inflation😮 Fast food prices out of control and they cant even get my order right😢 I pray for America 🇺🇸😢
You can go to any state and find the worst neighborhood for a video. For example: You could go to California and find whole neighborhoods living in tents, Motor homes and campers parked on the side streets because of the homeless problem, You can enjoy a day at the beach as long as you wear shoes, you might step on a dirty needle . Oh and be sure to pick up one of those poop maps so you know where the homeless poop. You don't want to get any of that on your shoes. Not to mention the overly high taxes and the thousands you can pay monthly for a studio apartment. That California toilet never made the top ten list!
Is it just because California is expensive and has alot of homeless? Does California have whole towns that have died like Mississippi and Arkansas? Florida doesn't have as many homeless, but they have miles of trailer parks, and most of those have blue tarps on their roof permanently, and look completely dilapidated.
Andy McWilliams without a doubt, Northwest Arkansas is a great place to live! Something tells me that the guy that made this video is from California, that explains his warped views.
All 50 states in America have the power to raise economically and mentally able and stable people! All 50 states in America have the moral and ethical responsibility to reduce crime and decrease street violence!
Cal native here. Very beautiful state. Every type of terrain and eco system except for jungles. Stay away from the inner cities and pack a gun, you'll do fine.
@@beobe99 tben where is california? Where the homeless rate is the highest in the WORLD. And literally has drug needles and faeces on the concrete in major cities
@@trolltrucker4225 Homelessness is an issue in CA but that's not what makes a State the worst to live in - that's just one stat. Worst states to live in is based on those that have lowest amount of Job opportunities, Health coverage, high crime, high poverty, and lack of things to do for entertainment. Sure, LA has high crime but that's based on certain sections of the city, not all of it, and certainly not the entire state. Jobs opportunities are higher in CA, chances of getting healthcare is higher, and having things to do is of course higher.
From U.K. I’m from a part of England, that is often derided for its low property values and left wing politics. But everywhere has it’s beautiful places and unique history. Best I think to always focus on the good stuff. Once pride in your area is lost, then you may as well throw the towel in.

@@NickJohnson in your defense, you did say El Reno, which is in Ok even though you played "El Paso" it was a parody, unfortunately some people didn't get it.
As a Californian I like the state to be more expensive so more tech savvy and educated people will be living here. We still have crime and the homeless but we should price them out so they will leave and move to other states. 👍
*@Dream Believe* If you’re an uneducated, loser Trumpturd, you have no place in California, go back to Alabama, Mississippi or Louisiana where you most likely came from. California is a state for high IQ people, it’s survival of the fittest, the dumb died out here.
@@Timsbackpages That's not happening. Why you ask? Because supporting the homeless is a cottage industry. All the homeless advocates would be out of a job without them, so they are here for good. I on the other hand, am getting out. Too expensive, too crowded and even most of those smart educated people are a pain to live around or deal with.
Varrock. Who in the f are you kidding? I think Glendale/Maryvale just graduated from NOT being a high murder capital; state taxes are ridiculously high and the weiteoffs are given to property and business owners to "stimulate growth". You are delusional.
@Eugene S Smith there is no legitimate need for any of us to possess firearms unless we are sportsmen or ranchers. There are too many damn guns in this country..It is no wonder that the US is among the most dangerous countries in the world. So you can have poverty strickened, highly corrupt, low laying Louisiana. After my Army days at Fort Polk I have no interest in visiting that backward, conservatard shithole of a state.
@@diamari91 FYI, bunk I lived in New Jersey for two years and the entire state is not like Newark, Paterson, Atlantic City, and Camden. New Jersey along with Pennsylvania, Maryland, New York, Massachusetts, etc. are all light years better than all the backward, poor, red republican states of the South.
Lived in LA (New Orleans) for 8 years, then NC (Charlotte) for 2 years, and been living in FL (Orlando) for 3 years. LA people are the warmest ever and the food is absolutely amazing! But I like living in FL the most! It’s freaking awesome here!! The weather, the gorgeous beaches and natural springs, so much to do year round, and no state income tax! I want to live here forever!
Surprised about New Mexico. Driving from Colorado Springs to Taos and Santa Fe was one of the best road trips I ever did in the US. Some very pretty country. However, I was just a tourist and being a tourist is completely different to living somewhere permanently.

California has the highest murders out of every state and probably the highest taxes and definitely the most corrupt politicians. Oh yea and bums on every corner... everyone is leaving cali but for some reason it’s not on the list.
Not sure where you live but if it is a red state, you survive with our money. So chuckle all you want. Red states are just not very well educated and thus poor. Enjoy.
I moved from Minnesota (on your best states list) to Tennessee and I couldn't be happier. I make the same money here but with the much lower cost of living my quality of life is substantially better. I can actually enjoy my hobbies now.
The Nick guy has no idea of what he is talking about
My Mom, Step-Dad, brother and sister-in-law lived in Kingsport, TN for a couple of years, they ended up moving back to Southern Illinois, they said, the jobs didn't pay very well and their homes were much more expensive than they'd ever seen. My brother and sister-in-law are educated with degrees but weren't satisfied with pay versus careers.

Moving to a Big City should be called how to get social anxiety
"You can't disagree with the methodology"
This methodology is rather flimsy and assumes that you share some of the creator's very personal preferences.
1. How are low home prices an inherent disadvantage? Many people, especially young people, consider affordability to be a plus. High cost does not necessarily mean high quality. In many jurisdictions, it's more a reflection of local/state government's burdensome land-use, zoning, and architectural standards and the way in which it artificially restricts housing supply.
2. Why does the creator assume that most people would agree with him that low population density is a negative (many people find it to be a plus)?
3. Tax burden is not factored into the analysis. Median income not accounting for tax burden is an asinine statistic when assessing the "quality" of a state. People care about how much they actually get to keep.
4. You have to be careful when you interpret state-level crime, poverty, etc statistics. These rates can very wildly from one part of a state to another, and jurisdictions with very high (but unusual compared to the rest of the state) rates can throw off the aggregate statistics. Winsorization of a data set broken down by county or by city (although that would not account for unincorporated areas) might be appropriate in some cases (possibly accompanied by an explanation of what factors might have led outlier cities/towns/counties to have such high crime/poverty/etc rates, and possible reasons why this may or may not be a reflection on the quality of the state as a whole).
Well said... This seems to be put together by a brainwashed college student mentioning random facts that fit a liberal bias. I'm sure his political science teacher is proud of him.
We have a cheap homes in Oklahoma but the problem is the wages when you make low wages you still struggle paying them if you look at Most states the higher the minimum wage the higher the housing it's all the same you'll struggle with low wages with low housing in a way it all balances out the rich get richer and the poor get poorer

True
i knew new mexico would be first, at least we’re first at something :,) ❤️
you're a growing state. why is it so lousy there?
@@NickJohnson it's a long story. we border mexico, we have a terrible drug problem, crime problem, we're the most impoverished state, and the education system is awful. there is nothing to do, no community events, no nice restaurants, no parks, no museums, literally nothing to do. it's a town full of nothing. the people suck, it's a sad place. However we have such a rich amazing culture and beautiful scenery but it gets overlooked due to the fact that we're a shitty state.
I honestly h8 living in new Mexico the amusement park is so small and sad
I agree with the education system sucking,especially here in hobbs.
I'm from Louisiana and moved from there to New Mexico because of the high crime rate back in Louisiana which in my opinion New Mexico is bad in a lot of areas but all in all more peaceful of a place to live then living in da nawf 4 cities while I lived in Louisiana held murder capital of that state Baton Rouge, Shreveport, New Orleans ( had the highest and rank second in the u.s. average at being murder capital ) and then where i was born and raised Monroe aka Murder Roe, Roe City, Bloody Roe and the list of nick names carry on and on smdh most people blame it's crime on it being a fairly black dominated state with Angolan and Haitian people and the fact that back in 2014 the news ranked us as having the highest incarceration rate in America which it has dropped way low last I heard I love my home state always will just murder out of hand in the south more south states are known for high murder rates then any where else in America in the south life has no value I grew up hearing one thing one phrase murder makes you famous down here you eat or be eaten and that's the rules that life I left behind and my two girls will not be raised in a place full of such hate and ignorance New Mexico is a way better place to me then my home state is here I raise my girls away from the violence back home so in gist there may not be much to do in the state of New Mexico but at least people ain't running around here murdering others just because Murder makes you famous basis this place is really nice and has beautiful scenery to see and I have enjoyed 2 years of the most relaxing days of my life here so New Mexico in my mind is a really nice place to escape
Michigan should also be on this list too because cities like Detroit and Flint have declined severely both economics wise and morally since changing times have impacted the population big time with many moving out for better jobs
This is political. California, New York & Illinois should be up there. Crime & poverty are higher in those states.
Not more than New Mexico. We are in a bad state here, and it is very hard to get out of.
In Illinois and New York outside of their largest cities crime in negligent. California is a shithole tho. But I’m not American so what do I know
You clearly haven’t seen New York outside of the New York City, it’s quite beautiful and a great place to live, Illinois isn’t terrible either or at least not bad enough to make this list, California is doing quite bad tho
Denise Eugene exactly New York DEFINITELY doesn’t deserve to be ok this list, it’s probably in the better half of states too if not the top 25%
California was once a wonderful place to live! The only people who really enjoy it now are pocketbook liberals and those who work for the state! Lots of things to do here! Beautiful topography and climate! But the politics here absolutely sucks!
The only bad thing about Arizona from my experience is the heat
Epic Rants I have experienced that my dad car doors won’t open the worse mistake we went there during summer and it ruined our flipdown tv so now we don’t want to use it anymore back in the day when we went there and also it was cold last I went there during fall man in California isn’t bad at night time
This. Plus some of Phoenix is pretty crappy. The city is just too big, traffic is bad, the air is bad, some dumpy suburbs, or clone track home neighborhoods, etc. But a lot of Arizona is beautiful and far more diverse than people realize. Lots of neat towns dot the state as well.
Don't worry. People are falling over themselves to move to every state on this list. This is just some weired anti red state list.

That state is horrible because it has low paying jobs and low cost of living.
Right, because living in Boston or New York is great. That is where income is higher but so is the cost of living. So much higher that instead of living in a 1,000 sq/ft mobile home you can only afford a 300 sq/ft apartment.

The bias in this video is pretty evident. The stats mentioned depend on the sources they were retrieved from. The cost of living was never mentioned. You can do better.

We have the highest taxes, a housing shortage { Tiny one bedroom apartment in Silverlake $2995.00 a month } High crime, overcrowded schools. Los Angeles has 31, 513 homeless people nightly. We have the forth worst commute in America at 28.9 minutes taken by 84.2% of the population. CA has 7 of the top 10 cities with the worst air quality. People poop all over the sidewalks in Los Angeles, San Diego and San Francisco.

@@TheAncientOne40 Right there with you. I had a large extended family in CA. My siblings and I are all 2nd generation Californians. Out of 60 extended family members zero remain.
I've flown to LA 4 times a year for the last 15 years, and it has gone from being a fun, laid back city, to a borderline third world city. Pretty sad. I can't speak for the rest of Cali, but if LA is any indication, the trends not looking good.
I lived in Sevierville, Tennessee for 5 years and had no problems with crime. My husband left the keys in the front door several times and no one attempted to break in! AND we lived in a trailer park! And as far as South Carolina, I grew up there, in Greenville. Unfortunately, that has gone downhill A LOT as far as crime. It's sad to see my home state the way it is today. Spartanburg is now called Murderburg and Anderson is just as bad. South Carolina does have very beautiful towns, though. The one good thing I can say about Greenville is that the jobs are plentiful and they pay well. More businesses are moving in all the time, too. So if someone is looking for a job, they will find one.

@@madambutterfly7513 The exodus from CA is real and the homeless aren't just drug addicts. This is what happens when you overtax "the rich" while becoming a haven for "dreamers." The rich (middle class) decide to leave, and that gives you a smaller and smaller tax base. And if they can't make you leave rural CA that way, they'll try to mess with your beautiful weather and cause or neglect fires to get state aid. People in neighboring states are even starting to complain about all the "migrants" from CA.

I don't usually give much thought to these "state ranking" comparisons but I have to give Nick here a bit of credit pointing out that there are good things in some of these states. Making individual choices based on a collective prespective you will have a very hard time finding a good fit.
Except New Mexico lol. I think he has a history with that state.
Our friend went to visit her brother in west Virginia. Oh no!! Isnt half the state on Dope😰😰
Louisiana is not bad actually you get to enjoy some smooth jazz while eating some craw fish and a bunch of trampoline parks its not bad.
Black to Black go to Baton Rouge it’s different
Welp i live in LA aka louisiana 😰😰
Frank Samuel IV same
Living in the woods of Mississippi is okay but Insurance is high priced 😮 So when are our great leaders gonna do something about Crime,Poverty,and Inflation😮 Fast food prices out of control and they cant even get my order right😢 I pray for America 🇺🇸😢
You can go to any state and find the worst neighborhood for a video. For example: You could go to California and find whole neighborhoods living in tents, Motor homes and campers parked on the side streets because of the homeless problem, You can enjoy a day at the beach as long as you wear shoes, you might step on a dirty needle . Oh and be sure to pick up one of those poop maps so you know where the homeless poop. You don't want to get any of that on your shoes. Not to mention the overly high taxes and the thousands you can pay monthly for a studio apartment. That California toilet never made the top ten list!
Is it just because California is expensive and has alot of homeless? Does California have whole towns that have died like Mississippi and Arkansas? Florida doesn't have as many homeless, but they have miles of trailer parks, and most of those have blue tarps on their roof permanently, and look completely dilapidated.
I’m glad Arkansas is ranked #2. Keeps all the riff raff out. I’m loving life in the Ozark Mountains of Arkansas.
From Batesville brother. I think this guy is off his Yankee rocker.
Andy McWilliams without a doubt, Northwest Arkansas is a great place to live!
Something tells me that the guy that made this video is from California, that explains his warped views.
Throw out a few towns in this state and it would be much better. I do think we have gone backwards in the last few years due to some poor leadership.
Chris Bolin stop telling everyone how good lake of the Ozarks is or the idiots will flood this area,
I share your sentiment! We'll keep this little gem to ourselves
WOW West Virginia isn't on
I'm just as shocked as you 😮 .... We're normally really good at coming in as #1 for anything bad... This is a first 😳
how the hell is Maryland, California, and Illinois not on this list!?
Haha it just is.
Fake
All 50 states in America have the power to raise economically and mentally able and stable people! All 50 states in America have the moral and ethical responsibility to reduce crime and decrease street violence!
This has everything to do with politics, you are using government statistics.
America has nothing that Europe does not have.
Why isn't California on the list?
Maybe because it's a super developed state, richer than 95% of the countries in the world?
Good point
Cal native here. Very beautiful state. Every type of terrain and eco system except for jungles. Stay away from the inner cities and pack a gun, you'll do fine.
@@David2751, California looks downright third world compared to all other states except New Mexico.
Because CA doesn't suck nearly as bad as ANY of the corrupt ex--Slave states.
Im a truck driver.... your list is so wrong its not even believable
And NOBODY knows like a trucker. They see all the warts of every state.
totally agree with you. the list is complete 100% crap.
This list is based on Stats, not a feeling you get when passing through...
@@beobe99 tben where is california? Where the homeless rate is the highest in the WORLD. And literally has drug needles and faeces on the concrete in major cities
@@trolltrucker4225 Homelessness is an issue in CA but that's not what makes a State the worst to live in - that's just one stat. Worst states to live in is based on those that have lowest amount of Job opportunities, Health coverage, high crime, high poverty, and lack of things to do for entertainment. Sure, LA has high crime but that's based on certain sections of the city, not all of it, and certainly not the entire state. Jobs opportunities are higher in CA, chances of getting healthcare is higher, and having things to do is of course higher.
Nick, like your vids your informative, honest, sense of humor...be happy and stay healthy!
What a nice video, very interesting! Thank you for sharing!
So pleasant
From U.K. I’m from a part of England, that is often derided for its low property values and left wing politics. But everywhere has it’s beautiful places and unique history. Best I think to always focus on the good stuff. Once pride in your area is lost, then you may as well throw the towel in.
So, true
Anyone who plays a song about El Paso, TX when they are talking about Oklahoma is not to be taken seriously.
it's just jokes bro
@@NickJohnson a joke has to have a little reality, unless you are a braindead left tard, then you think every false POS slam against the rest of the country is smart and funny.
You are a bigot, plain and simple. Err, mostly simple.
@@NickJohnson in your defense, you did say El Reno, which is in Ok even though you played "El Paso" it was a parody, unfortunately some people didn't get it.
well theres not many songs about Oklahoma.....well excepting that one.....i forget the name of it......
Every where my mom wants to move to 😂
Great video thank you for sharing
CALIFORNIA is the worst state to live. Gas prices are high, homes are expensive , traffic is worst everywhere and jobs are difficult to find.
As a Californian I like the state to be more expensive so more tech savvy and educated people will be living here. We still have crime and the homeless but we should price them out so they will leave and move to other states. 👍
*@Dream Believe*
If you’re an uneducated, loser Trumpturd, you have no place in California, go back to Alabama, Mississippi or Louisiana where you most likely came from. California is a state for high IQ people, it’s survival of the fittest, the dumb died out here.
@@Timsbackpages That's not happening. Why you ask? Because supporting the homeless is a cottage industry. All the homeless advocates would be out of a job without them, so they are here for good. I on the other hand, am getting out. Too expensive, too crowded and even most of those smart educated people are a pain to live around or deal with.
@@erwinkunze4091 So how did you get here? You obviously don't fit the outline you just laid out.
homeless everywhere and Human feces all over the city's
I live in Arizona and it's great. Low cost of living and safe cities to live in.
@@minimalist_monk not if you enjoy swimming and hiking
Varrock. Who in the f are you kidding? I think Glendale/Maryvale just graduated from NOT being a high murder capital; state taxes are ridiculously high and the weiteoffs are given to property and business owners to "stimulate growth". You are delusional.
I was there for a month and i love it... (Tucson)
Crystian hidaloa. LOL 😂. Well, sure. But tucson is not a majority of the state honey. I lived there too.
@Broken Patriot yeah I live in southern Nevada and I agree with that.
LOL LOL I need to find you ! Too fckin funnnyyy🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
There's nothing wrong with living in a mobile home. I bought a mobile home live in a beautiful mobile home park. Stop trashing mobile homes please.
WASTE OF TIME. Skip this silly nonsense. So bad I actually did not finish the list.
Let me guess. You're from the South.
You forgot about the corrupt state of New Jersey.
New Jersey cannot light a candle to Louisiana when it comes to corruption, not even close.
Arizona is also blending in!
@Eugene S Smith there is no legitimate need for any of us to possess firearms unless we are sportsmen or ranchers. There are too many damn guns in this country..It is no wonder that the US is among the most dangerous countries in the world. So you can have poverty strickened, highly corrupt, low laying Louisiana. After my Army days at Fort Polk I have no interest in visiting that backward, conservatard shithole of a state.
@@robertpreskop4425 you haven't been to Jersey buddy... You need a gun to survive waiting for a bus here in Newark
@@diamari91 FYI, bunk I lived in New Jersey for two years and the entire state is not like Newark, Paterson, Atlantic City, and Camden. New Jersey along with Pennsylvania, Maryland, New York, Massachusetts, etc. are all light years better than all the backward, poor, red republican states of the South.
give that cat a money budget pls
Lived in LA (New Orleans) for 8 years, then NC (Charlotte) for 2 years, and been living in FL (Orlando) for 3 years. LA people are the warmest ever and the food is absolutely amazing! But I like living in FL the most! It’s freaking awesome here!! The weather, the gorgeous beaches and natural springs, so much to do year round, and no state income tax! I want to live here forever!
Surprised about New Mexico. Driving from Colorado Springs to Taos and Santa Fe was one of the best road trips I ever did in the US. Some very pretty country. However, I was just a tourist and being a tourist is completely different to living somewhere permanently.
I drove from Cali to Mississippi\ so I went right thru New Mexico. Cracks in roads but not too bad. New Mexico needs help😢😢😢
