All Red states. There are reasons for that. Some are the stifling of freedom. Some are government intrusion into personal life and decisions. Some are horrific infrastructure, due to Republican neglect. Some are terrible public services, from electrical grid to policing to the absence of hospitals for long distances.
America’s 10 worst states to live and work in for 2023
- 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.
With nearly twice as many job openings nationwide as there are workers available to fill them, companies are setting up shop where the workers are.
Each year, as part of our overall assessment of state business climates, CNBC’s America’s Top States for Business study considers how welcoming each state is to workers and their families.
Life, Health and Inclusion is one of the study’s ten categories of competitiveness. And this year, with the nationwide worker shortage so severe, the category is taking on increased importance in our methodology.
We consider multiple quality of life factors, including crime rates, environmental quality, and health care. We also look at the quality and availability of childcare, which is one of the most important factors in getting parents back into the workforce.

Holy shit!
Louisiana is a fucking toilet. Nice folks down in the bayou, and N.O. can be fun, but backward rednecks everywhere else, especially in the upper portions. And of course crime is rampant.
That must be why everybody's moving there.All Red states. There are reasons for that. Some are the stifling of freedom. Some are government intrusion into personal life and decisions. Some are horrific infrastructure, due to Republican neglect. Some are terrible public services, from electrical grid to policing to the absence of hospitals for long distances.

Those pesky things called facts, don’t let them get in the way of your lies…All Red states. There are reasons for that. Some are the stifling of freedom. Some are government intrusion into personal life and decisions. Some are horrific infrastructure, due to Republican neglect. Some are terrible public services, from electrical grid to policing to the absence of hospitals for long distances.

And then moving back out.Now that is funny........as there is an exodus from blue states to Red States.......
Funny how real people are doing the exact opposite of your thread....moving to those states in massive numbers.......
Why are you trying to refute the OP with data about people deciding to move to these states? The fact that people are moving to Texas doesn't negate the fact that they have poor electrical infrastructure. People moving to Florida doesn't fix their 4X homeowner insurance costs.Hmmmm....you would have to explain this then....
You know...with actual data.....
NEW YORK - A new report shows that people are leaving The West Coast, Northeast, and Midwest states and heading to states like Texas and Florida.
The annual U-Haul Growth Index looks at the preferred destinations of one-way U-Haul truck customers and where they were coming from.
California, Illinois, Michigan, Massachusetts, and New York were at the top of the list of states people are leaving.
What states are people moving to?
Migration to the Southeast and Southwest U.S. accelerated during the pandemic and continued through last year.
The U-Haul Growth Index is compiled according to the net gain of one-way U-Haul trucks arriving in a state or city, versus departing from that state or city, in a calendar year. Migration trends data is compiled from more than 2 million one-way U-Haul truck transactions that occur annually across the U.S. and Canada.
Texas is the No. 1 growth state for the second consecutive year and the fifth time since 2016. Florida, which ranks second, has been a top-three growth state seven years in a row.
South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee, Arizona, Georgia, Ohio, and Idaho round out the top 10 growth states. Virginia and Alabama are the biggest risers, climbing 26 spots from their respective 2021 rankings.
Democrat controlled states see largest number of people moving out
Here is where New York and New Jersey rank on the list.www.fox5ny.com
Crime AND murder are rampant in Red states.Crime is rampant in blue cities.....and Louisiana has New Orleans, and Baton Rouge....democrat controlled for decades, driving up the crime rates....
Another retard with zero critical thinking skills.That must be why everybody's moving there.
Coming as a surprise to no one.All Red states.
Likely because it’s so bad it doesn’t merit the worst list.It's a wonder that Mississippi avoided this list.
Crime AND murder are rampant in Red states.
I've proven that in multiple threads here.
25 years of incompetent Republican rule turned Florida into a sewer, well before DeSantis.not sure Florida deserves to be on there once DeSantis is gone.
Coming as a surprise to no one.
Conservatives are actually proud of this – that Republican-controlled states are such third-world hellholes, the enormous gap between a wealthy, well-to-do minority at the top and the majority at the bottom who continue to suffer from chronic poverty and deprivation, as if it’s ‘validation’ of failed conservative economic dogma.
Interesting statistics, punches holes in your story…Conservatives are actually proud of this – that Republican-controlled states are such third-world hellholes, the enormous gap between a wealthy, well-to-do minority at the top and the majority at the bottom who continue to suffer from chronic poverty and deprivation, as if it’s ‘validation’ of failed conservative economic dogma.
If you were homeless wouldn't you want to be in a state that has good safety net public services, where you could get a meal and shelter when you need it?Interesting statistics, punches holes in your story…
