I found this very interesting. Just in case anyone is considering a move in the near future - maybe this might help in your decision. Even if you're not moving, it was interesting to see how my state ranked.

I am in awe on the states, coming from another country. Pity there is no legend, explaining the abbreviation of the different states ............

The states are color coded based on their grade. The grade legend is pictured to the bottom right of the map. To know which state is which, click on it. Then it will tell you the state's name along with how they got their overall grade. HTH

WOW this is really cool! Thanks for posting this. Been going thru some of the states here and so far Ohio(B) has been the highest rated I've seen. But I havent been thru them all yet.

Ohio(B), Wisconsin (B-), Conneticut (B), Maine (B), and South Carolina (B-) are the highest "graded" states. However, glancing through some states are better at one thing.
It's very interesting to see how the grades "average" out. Ok...maybe that's the teacher nerd in me.  California spends the most money on mental illnesses.
