SALT LAKE CITY —The Beehive State is nearly the least hated state in the U.S.
A new survey of the most hated states in the country by BestLife used data such as population increase/decrease and resident pride percentage to determine its rankings
When all the numbers were tallied, Utah has ranked the 49th least hated state in the good ole' U.S. of A.! Utah's hatred index was -290, which is the result of an algorithm that factored in all the data.
Only Idaho at No. 50 was hated less than Utah.
Pretty cool.
