re: Rank the Worst SEC States To Live In

I would dare to say that a person could have the same quality of life in any of those states. If you're a professional in Louisiana, how is that different from being a professional in South Carolina? Or if you're a garbage man in Florida, how is that different from being a garbage man in Texas?

1. MS
2. AL
3. AR
4. FL
5. KY
6. GA
7. SC
8. TN
9. LA
10. MO
11. TX

Your list is pretty accurate

The Ozarks are beautiful

1. Mississippi
2. Louisiana
3. Arkansas
4. Texas
5. South Carolina
6. Alabama
7. Kentucky
8. Missouri
9. Georgia
10. Tennessee
11. Florida

Would prefer to live in none of them.

1. Mississippi
2. Louisiana
3. Missouri
4. Arkansas
5. Alabama
6. Kentucky
7. Florida
8. Georgia
9. Tennessee
10. Texas
11. South Carolina

Better fishing, better choices to indulge in LA. Otherwise, I agree with your post.

1. Kentucky
2. Mississippi
3. Arkansas
4. Alabama
5. Missouri
6. Louisiana
7. South Carolina
8. Tennessee
9. Georgia
10. Texas
11. Florida (only due to appeal of living in a small beach town)

This is more my order of where I would want to live.

1. Mississippi - shithole, self explanatory
2. Missouri - just don't have interest here
3. Arkansas - haven't spent much time here, want to check out the hill country
4. Alabama - Even though North Alabama is somewhat ok, I don't want to live in this state, ever.
5. Texas - absolutely no interest to live in this state. Would like it to be lower, but it faces some stiff competition at the bottom.
6. Kentucky - eh, some areas aren't bad
7. Louisiana - this seems way too high, but a lot of my family lives here and love the food. I really don't ever want to live in this state again though.
8. Florida - Some of my wife's family lives here and there are a couple of places I would think about living
9. South Carolina - Northwest SC is very similar to the next two, Charleston area isn't bad either.
10. Georgia - Like some areas of North Georgia, Kinda interested in an area like Savannah.
11. Tennessee - Moved here for a reason, love East Tennessee.

It is easy to make blanket statement about states, but I really think that the area around where you live is what really matters

From houston, I can pretty easily make day trips to galveston, San antonio, austin, dallas, or acadiana. To me, that provides some solid versatity.
