Worst U.S. state to live in

[John Dule]

States like the Dakotas, Nebraska, Kansas, etc are all incredibly cheap to live in. If you've got a decent amount of money you can buy a mcmansion and live quite comfortably. And I like the cold, so Alaska's still on the table. The worst state would be one that is simultaneously expensive like California, boring like North Dakota, hot/humid like Mississippi, flat like Kansas, prone to natural disasters like Louisiana, and populated by insane meth addicts like West Virginia.

So definitely Florida.

On the issue of hot/cold: There's nothing I hate more than trying to fall asleep while it's hot (and worse, humid) outside. Laying in bed sweating is unbelievably unpleasant. The sheets stick to your skin and you toss and turn constantly.

In the cold, you also get to start up the fireplace, turn on the heater, and bundle up under a huge pile of blankets. Falling asleep while it's cold is really comfy. So I'm sorry to say it, but I'd rather live in Alaska than anywhere down south. And it's a shame, because I love southern cooking.

I've been to almost every state in the country, lived in Europe, and have lived in a variety of places- both some of the most liberal and conservative states in the US.  There isn't a place I wouldn't live again.  

But assuming that's not a concern [...]  FL would be the worst for me.

Confirmed.
