Are you in a peaceful State?

[Randomchaos]

Heh, TN is ranked 49th. I don't know if I should be proud its not the worst, or sad that it almost is

#4!! Woot! I knew I liked this state for a reason.

I beat you! :Flip: Mississippi's only #41. :rockon: I think Memphis is the only reason that TN ranks that low (Jackson hurts us & I'm sure New Orleans doesn't help Louisana's dead-last ranking). I lived in Memphis for about a year & had the same truck stolen twice! Memphis sucks! I love Nashville & Knoxville though! :thumbup:

Most of the time...

Fifth. I need to show this to that little $^%#! dog next door...

28. New Jersey still sucks major ass and no one can tell me different. :BLAA:

7th in state and 3rd in metro. I'll take it.

 

[FloppyRunner]

If it's the same study, no, I'm (soon to be) in AZ, ranked 46th. However, I really just got a good laugh out of the article. The criteria they used was a bunch of BS in my opinion. But if I went into why I think that, I'd border on breaking forum rules on politics...I think anyway.

We beat California!!!!! That's all that matters
AND we're number one in peace improvement! lol
NY-31

:rockon:

Makes me glad to live in a country where we don't feel the need to compare which states are more dangerous than others.....

In Australia, the only dangerous states are intoxication, aggression, despair etc.

Funny as F*@k, sadly need to spread rep around.
We don't have a rating in Ireland and despite being used as Europe's bog brush we are according to the LA Times just below Australia at # 10.

So the happiest countries are…

Denmark
Finland
Norway
Netherlands
Canada
Switzerland
Sweden
New Zealand
Australia
Ireland

[edit I reckon Denmark might slip in light of recent events]

We're #1. We're # 1! I live in Maine. The #1 state on this list. I just got back from Hawaii and I'd have to say that it was quite a bit more peaceful than back home. oh well It's good to be the King!

Interesting...

Michigan is 29 and Missouri is 45...

Funny thing was I spent the weekend in Iowa and it's ranked 10 but I actually couldn't stand it there.

 

[Dave in Houston]

I figured that for Texas, it would be quickest to start at #50 and work backwards. I was not too far wrong... #44, just behind Arkansas, but ahead of Missouri.

Edit: But we're 8th in improvement. I wonder how far we were down the list on the last survey.

Tied for second... not bad!

You know why Maine is so peaceful? (I'm from Maine btw)... There's nothing to do, there's no work, everyone is drunk and depressed and 80% of the state is forest without civilization.
