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.

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

South Dakota was white in every single one, except for underrated where it was the lightest color possible.

It depends on what you like. Most people equate good scenery with having coasts or mountains, and Kansas doesn't fare well in those two categories.
I've never been to North Dakota, but I wonder how it compares to Kansas. I kind of imagine them being identical. Kansas may have more sunflowers and anti-abortion billboards.

As much as I hate Oklahoma, it does have some pretty good scenery in some areas. I went out to Pawhuska, a Native American town about an hour NW of Tulsa over labor day weekend. Nice little hidden lake out there that's really hard to get to. But it was gorgeous out there. Green, rolling hills.
