Wisconsin. Cause no one gives a shit about wisconsin, there will never be a telethon about all the people who die of heatstroke each year or how everyone in wisconsin has diabetes because of all the cheese, no, no one gives a f**k about wisconsin. And you might be thinking "Well then why would that be the best state to live in?" Because of one reason. When I say "no one" cares about wisconsin, that means "No One." No Hillary Clinton bitch, no Barack Obama n-word, no george bush, no ted kennedy, and especially (and this is the most important), no terrorists. You will never in your life hear about terrorists bombing fuckin wisconsin (to all the brave men and women who have dedicated their lives to Wis-Tap, the wisconsin anti-terrorist movement, you have wasted your lives. Go kill yourself, preferably in a suicide bombing(LETS GET THIS BITCH ON THE MAP!!!)).
I live in Wisconsin.
Hey we have beaches! ...by our lakes. Just don't go into lake Michigan and you'll be fine. Don't camp out on the sandbars, like lots of dumbasses do, and you won't die.
We have a diverse climate. 100+ degrees in the summer and below zero in the winter. We have diverse people.
We have the world's largest urinal, does that count as a reason WI is cool? We have the world's largest water park! Cheyeah.

California is the best state to live at. Not because I live here, but because there are tons of way to enjoy yourself. There are shopping malls, great restaurants as well as sight seeing and etcetera, and it never gets extremely cold nor extremely hot. There are tons of stars (mostly in Hollywood, but I heard Vanessa Carlton lives in San Francisco). There are the mountains and beaches (as said by Joss-eh-lime). There are pretty great schools that educate you well. So, Californa is where it's at!

Every states has its flaws, though.

Great schools in Texas. Tons of celebrities in Texas. Tons of malls in Texas. Gets hot here, but it gets plenty hot in California and you're kidding yourself if you think otherwise. Houston can have some nasty weather, but it's also loads cheaper to live here. Also, we have less strict laws on our every day lives. We have a set amount for tickets (not $197.50 at one light and $174.33 at a light a block away).

I have heard that most sports stars who can't play in California or New York or Boston, would want to play in Texas because the taxes are next to none. Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't Texas the state where they don't tax your wages or something like that?

I get taxed. On my pay, I get taxed about 22% for income/other taxes. Our sales tax is relatively low, though.

Is that true? I would figure places in California and cities such as Seattle to have a lot of restaurants (we have blocks of Starbucks and McDonald's) and to be the "fattest," then, but they were actually both on the "fittest" list. I never really knew how they got these statistics.

Explaining the guidelines would take forever, they have multiple .PDF files that are uber long. But as an overview, they just explain the importance of nutrition, background information on what you eat, how to read a food label, the food guide pyramid, and they have a separate section which stresses physical activity.

People in Iowa are so freakin' nice. It's not natural. Dubuque is really, really pretty. Whenever I go to Iowa I always drive through Dubuque.
You want to know why WI isn't a good state to live in? Besides the fact that there's a lot of country, and not a whole lot to do. And that the city is a really dangerous place to be (some parts of Madison and Milwaukee). Our unemployment rate is around 5%. We have lots of people on welfare. I haven't travelled a whole lot, but most places I've been are better than here. I understand why most people who move away, stay away. If you like the outdoors you might like it here, but usually the crappy weather ruins it.
