Reputations of States - Some fun maps
As a market researcher, I'll preface this by saying that it's a panel from one of the worst businesses in our industry and so it's not really generalizable, but nonetheless it's kind of fun.
I suspect that there's a bit of a problem in that people may vote for their own states, which probably should be taken out of the data. As such, I figure that bigger states are amplified. I suspect that it wouldn't change the conclusions, though. http://www.businessinsider.com/poll-...-states-2013-8 |

Shocker, New York, California, Texas, Florida are in every conversation. I did find it humorous that Texas was the state that most people wanted to kick out of America.

Except that nobody would like what a "Texas-less" union would feel like financially. Right now, revenues from Texas make up for a lot of slacker states. But I'm cool with not paying other states bills...so go ahead and kick us out. We keep our State Guard fighter jets...just to make sure you don't try to force us back in.

If we kicked Texas out, Texas would just take Oklahoma and New Mexico as a buffer zone...and we'd let them.

Good salmon, but I've heard that fresh fruits and veggies are a problem.

Tennessee is quietly a mysterious state.

I mean western ks is horrible. But once you get to about Hays it gets better, if you get off i70. I grew up going to a family farm north of Russell and it was tons of woodlands, creeks, hills, and wildlife. I find that scenery much nicer than open dry desert of the southwest but thats personal opinion I guess. I love going back there every chance I get. I'll be there nov 9th to fold some pheasants. cant wait.
