Best State + Best Town = A Better Life

 

few notes from the above article:

There are two main quality of life factors that pull New Jersey’s overall ranking below that of most other states. Because crime isn’t one of those factors, there isn’t an easy way to negate these two rating-destroying factors. If an overall high state crime rate was one of the extremely poor factors, someone could choose to live in one of the safest places in New Jersey and overcome that negative.
