(77WABC) Don’t worry be happy. Apparently many New Jersey residents agree. New Jersey is the 9th happiest state in America according to a poll by WalletHub.
That’s not too shabby out of a study ranking the top fifty states.
Wallet Hub based the poll on many different factors such as the depression rate and the positive COVID-19 testing rate, to income growth and the unemployment rate.
The top five happiest states are number 1 Utah, followed by Minnesota, Hawaii, California and North Dakota. The top five least happiest states are number 1 West Virginia, followed by Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Oklahoma.
