A critical nationwide worker shortage has companies locating and expanding in places where workers want to live, but culture war politics are complicating the equation.
CNBC’s annual ranking of state business climates considers Life, Health and Inclusion as one of ten categories of competitiveness.
The study measures quality of life issues including crime, health care, childcare and health care, as well as inclusive policies on discrimination and reproductive rights.

Louisiana
With just 76 licensed childcare facilities in a state of 4.6 million people, no state does worse than Louisiana in this increasingly important quality of life metric. State lawmakers have begun trying to remedy that, approving $44 million in new funding in the final hours of the 2023 legislative session, quickly signed into law by Gov. John Bel Edwards. Louisiana won’t solve its childcare problem overnight, but the new funding is a down payment on an improvement in the Pelican State’s poor quality of life.
2023 Life, Health & Inclusion Score: 76 out of 350 points (Top States Grade: F)
Strengths: No metrics in the top 25
Weaknesses: Child Care, Crime, Reproductive Rights

Just a coincidence that CNBC named all red states I am sure

Its true. All CNBC readers should take caution and avoid these places at all costs. They need to tell their friends and families too

How could 200,000 college educated workers moving to Texas each year possibly be wrong? It depends on how you look at it. With the nation’s highest percentage of people without health insurance and the second lowest number of primary care physicians per capita, all those new Texans are arriving to find a dismal health care system. Texas has the nation’s thirteenth-highest violent crime rate, and it ranks thirty seventh for licensed childcare facilities per capita.
The Lone Star State keeps hacking away at inclusiveness, with laws targeting the LGBTQ+ population, voting rights, and the nation’s strictest abortion ban. Yes, there are enormous economic opportunities in Texas, and it is attracting people from far and wide. But this state also has some Texas-sized issues when it comes to life, health and inclusion. And it is one of the reasons that the state fell out of the overall top five for the first time in the 16-year history of CNBC’s rankings.
2023 Life, Health & Inclusion Score: 53 out of 350 points (Top States Grade: F)
Strengths: No metrics in the top 25
Weaknesses: Reproductive Rights, Health, Voting Rights, Worker Protections, Inclusiveness

Childcare you say?
So any if you recall what some of the BLM marxists were pushing?
The community should take care of the children? Well when everyone in your community has that attitude, none of them get taken care of.

9 of the 10 states are rapidly gaining population. Clearly number of childcare facilities are NOT an important metric, unless the goal is to skew the data to blue states.
If you think about it, state population growth is really all that matters. Follow that and you’ll find the best states to live in and for business.
