Worst States

This is a fascinating map.



I'm curious how some of these were measured, though. Look at Ohio. It's the "Nerdiest state." How is that determined? And why is it a bad thing?

What about New Mexico being the most "anti-social." What were the metrics for that?

I must also say that I'm very proud of my home state, Montana, for being the worst in drunk driving. Way to go, guys! You earned it!

I dont understand Ohio being the nerdiest state. I would think it would be California for Silicon Valley and all the tech jobs, or Washington for Microsoft.

That's why I wish the person who put this together had also released the metrics. Some of them are quite obvious, but others (*coughOhiocough*) are not.
