In a new report from WalletHub, experts compared all 50 states to decide which is the best to live in and WalletHub determined that Wisconsin is the No. 4 best state to live in nationwide, just ahead of its neighbor, Minnesota and behind New Jersey at No. 3.
  1. Massachusetts​
  2. Idaho​
  3. New Jersey​
  4. Wisconsin​
  5. Minnesota​
There were five major categories that states were scored on, with Wisconsin’s respective ranking listed in bold.​
  • Affordability (30)​
  • Economy (12)​
  • Education & Health (9)​
  • Quality of Life (12)​
  • Safety (8)​
So here's your chance to mention the Pros and Cons of where you live and why you live there. Most of us live in the upper midwest but this is not limited to which state you live in.

As my signature states, we live in Neenah, Wisconsin and have lived here for the last 20+ years. Career choices brought me to the Fox Valley. A place with low crime, good schools and hospitals and just as important to me, all four seasons. Like many of us, I enjoy the end of summer when the leaves turn, the first snow falls, and beyond. Springtime brings new beginnings and summer's endless possibilities. We like it here!
Cons would include local taxes/poor roads, urban sprawl effecting recreation and recent low-snow winters.

Here's the full list
