A person disclosed the worst state in the US they have visited, and the reason behind it is interesting.
Traveling is a joy that not everyone gets to experience often, particularly when it’s visiting your own country and seeing everything it has to offer.
While you might be able to see four to six states in your lifetime, someone has been to every single state and stayed there for little under two months at a time.
This meant that they were able to immerse themselves in the culture for a sometime.

Taking to Reddit, the user shared: “I’ve spent at least 60 days living in every U.S. state. AMA (Ask Me Anything).”
They added: “I’ve worked in management and/or consulting roles that took me all over the country. Combined with my personal travels, this has led to me spending at least 60 days in every U.S. state. Ask me anything about the places, people, and lessons learned.”
One person asked them what their favorite and least favorite place was to visit, and the answer was interesting.
For the most favorite, they replied: “Alaska is beautiful. Give you pride in your land. Mountains and silence are two things I never take for granted and I could eat barrels of fresh Alaskan cod with buckets of crab legs in the side.”
However, the least favorite was picked because it’s an ‘unfortunate state’.
The user wrote that it's just not got any attractions, stating: “North Dakota really is the most unfortunate state. Even South Dakota has the Black Hills among other attractions.”
The person also claimed that it’s simply not his 'cup of tea’.
A user agreed with them, stating: "I’ve been to 47 of the 50 states: I agree that North Dakota is the most unfortunate (outside of Fargo and Roosevelt Nat’l Park, both of which I enjoyed). Arkansas is up there as well: driving the backroads in the southeastern portion of the state shows you desolation and poverty with little opportunity."
While we’re on the topic, you might be wondering what is actually the best place in the US to visit, or at least the happiest.
The Redditor said Minniesota had the nicest people, but WalletHub’s annual ranking of the happiest states in America shared Hawaii was where happy people live.
According to the report, Hawaii residents have the highest levels of life satisfaction in the country and also the second-lowest rate of depression.
It revealed that 85 per cent of adults say they are in good or better health.
“That’s an obvious number one. It has great weather year-round. People are happy with life and they’re not depressed. It has a year-round tourism economy, so the unemployment is pretty low, and people there have a reasonably high income, so there’s little financial anxiety,” Chip Lupo, writer and analyst at WalletHub, told CNBC Make It.
The state also has one of the lowest unemployment rates in the country as well as the second-highest share of households with an annual income above $75,000.
Honestly, it sounds like a dream.
All-in-all, the happiest states in America this year are as follow:
