Politico ranked all 50 states and DC each on 14 categories.  Overall wealth. Health. Incarceration rate. Crime rate. Etc.  They then compiled those stats into the ranking.

The Bible belt faired very poorly, Oklahoma was no exception.

The common denominator for high ranking states? Education. Which makes sense, high school graduates are less likely to go to jail. Be unemployed. Die an early death. Start a business.  Let alone go to college.
