Say Aloha to the Happiest State in America

Landing in the right ZIP code may matter more to your mood than you think, suggests a new analysis by WalletHub. The personal finance site ranked all 50 states across 30 metrics tied to economic, emotional, physical, and social well-being—things like depression rates, how many adults feel productive, income growth, and unemployment. Topping the list: Hawaii. The Aloha State pairs high reported life satisfaction with the nation's second-lowest depression rate and longest life expectancy. About 84% of adults there say they're in good or better health, while almost 72% feel active and productive each day; unemployment, meanwhile, hovers at just 2.5%. Here, the top and bottom 10 states:
