The 10 unhappiest states in the US, ranked
The personal-finance outlet compared the 50 states using three categories: emotional and physical well-being, work environment, and community and environment. These categories were quantified using a total of 30 metrics, including life expectancy, share of adult depression, commute time, unemployment, and divorce rate.
To do so, they pulled data from the US Census Bureau, the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Sharecare Community Well-Being Index, AmeriCorps, and more.
From WalletHub’s final list, Business Insider pulled the 10 lowest-ranked states to identify the 10 unhappiest.
WalletHub analyst Chip Lupo told BI that the unhappiest states in the country are “mostly rural low-income states, several in the Deep South where there’s not just in terms of happiness, but in other economic and socioeconomic areas where this part of the country, and these states particularly, rank pretty lowly.”
From Alaska to Louisiana, here are the unhappiest states in the country.
