Rating of our States

That tells a lot about the different states, but what it doesn't tell is who or what is the norm. If you talk about population, then of course everything would be compared to New York, LA etc. Things are different there and elsewhere. I understand that most of what is shown is compared to it's own state, but not the median income, etc. Here's an example. Let's take the state of Colorado. If you make the median amount of money per year, you couldn't live in the city of Vail. I know, it works the other way as well, but when you take into consideration the entire country, the higher population areas skew the data. But the cost of living doesn't. I've always enjoyed looking at these sort of surveys just to see how they rank where I live. I've been proud and I've been upset. It all depends on who, what and where the survey is conducted. I wonder what such a survey would say if the questions were to compare where the person lives to NYC, LA, Chi, Mia, etc. The larger metropolis areas should have their own surveys and then compare them to the rest of the country. I submit that you would see a totally different outcome.
