Hawaii Is A Happy State
In a recent survey Hawaii ranked as the 2nd most happiest state in the United States.
#1 was Louisiana. I am going to New Orleans in April so I guess that will be a happy week.
Rounding out the Top 5 were Florida, Tennessee and Arizona.
All of the top 5 provided an excellent quality of life. And at least 4 of the 5 would be considered sunshine states. Other factors would include air quality, schools, crime rates, and climate.
