Am from Mississippi. Only silver lining is our childhood vaccination rate (99% for MMR, for instance), and fairly affordable housing. Still failing in many other metrics, though.
If your housing is still only fairly affordable despite the fact that it's literally the worst place to live in the US, then that isn't really a positive.
I mean, we're ranked one in cost of living and 20 in housing affordability (by USNews). Now granted, I'm only here cause I'm with family. I'm heading to college in New Jersey in a couple days anyway, so I can say goodbye to this state.
Oh hey I'm also a Mississippi to NJ transplant! People are like, why would you move to Jersey of all places? And I'm like, I'm from Mississippi... And they just go oh yeah okay that makes sense
