    Utah Poised to Be the Best U.S. State to Live In

    WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Utah easily leads the nation in terms of its performance across 13 forward-looking metrics that might determine which states will be the best places to live in the future. Minnesota, Colorado, Nebraska, and North Dakota round out the top five.

    84-88% White or European (one of the U.S. highest percentages of Whites/ European-Americans).

    10% Hispanic/Latino (of any race).

    2.5% American Indians and Alaskan Natives.

    2% Asian-American.

    7% Pacific Islander.

    "West Virginia, followed by Mississippi and Kentucky, are the three states with the lowest overall average ranking across the 13 metrics."

    Thanks for the link. Not surprised by the quote above. Mississippi really is a hell hole. I hope I never have to travel to or through that place again.

    Colorado might be the best place to live in the future for brown or black folks, since they seem to be not welcomed in Utah.

    Utah is boring, but Colorado seems like a decent place.

    I disagree with that. Minorities are having children in much larger quantities than whites, so areas with a high minority population keep getting exponentially moreso like milwaukee, detroit, kansas city, cleveland, etc

    Some of the nicest people I have met here are polynesian. I met a guy name Saul who owns a small business and I hang with him and his people the most. I also started a pick-up baseball game on Saturdays and met a guy name Jorge, who I hang with and attempt to play soccer with. All of these people are very nice and normal. Now, I have been in parts of the country where things are a little different. In vancouver, WA and portland, OR, Russians are a burden on the communities. These people are f'ing brutal and love organized crime.

    If you love the outdoors, Utah is heaven. Downtown night life is underrated some, but nowhere near to what I was used to in Portland and Seattle. It's getting better here...way under the radar.

    Because of the Mormon church, SLC is probably one of the more diverse places in terms of types of businesses and retaurants that I have seen. Great restaurant options.

    utah is also a top state in terms of gross revenue produced from plastic surgery. I have done some business with several places. Mormon men love their women to look as best as possible.

    yeah i agree with that. I'm saying once whites decide to move somewhere they will soon be followed by those minorities you are speaking of because quality of living, opportunities, etc. are so much better.

    Also, what happened to Avril?

    Yep Utah has some of the hottest women around because Mormons take care of themselves.

    3-4 years ago, every Latino that I knew that was leaving California, was going to Utah.(plenty of construction work).. Maybe Utah is moving up because of all the cheap labor they are getting...

    A lot of neighboring states, who don't have the facilities, use our state's hospitals. We are tech and medical heavy. Construction doing well too.

    In the future Utah will become a 3rd world cesspool like the rest of the country. There won't be any USA left.

    But it is what it is.

    high concentration of decent, self-reliant types armed to the teeth with guns and ammo. Also, almost every home, at least when my wife and I were shopping for them, had a food storage room. I don't think utah will ever become as bad as many other places. Apparently the Mormon church is the prepare for anything type. Does anyone know if the Mormon church believes in end times and that sort of thing?

    Yup

    There will appear a great sign in the heaven, and all the people shall see it.
    The righteous that are upon the earth will be caught up to meet him.
    Angels will announce his return, which all the inhabitants of the earth will hear, and every knee shall bow

    Northern mississippi, olive Branch, ETC, just south of Memphis is awesome, one of the fastest growing areas in America.

    Gulfport/Biloxi/Bay St Louis, Very nice area, especially after hurricane Katrina damage has been repaired. The middle is the shitty part

    Brock has it right here....just stay away from Jackson area (other than Madison County) and the rest is not so bad. There is a reason why people who have lived there still refer to North and South Mississippi - because the rest is nothing but hwy 45 and a bunch of Deliverance type ghost towns with nothing but a drug store surrounded by 5 liquor stores and knockoff FUBU storefronts....and about 300 churches.
