Minnesota is the best state. Reasons:
1. We have the Mall of America, which has two Gamestops and an amusement park in it.
2. Our unemployment rate is 7% instead of the national average of 9.6%.
3. Out of all the states where a significant amount of students take the ACT, we often have the highest average.
4. We have lots and lots of snow.
5. We are called a great state for Golf.
6. We have 5 million people; enough to be lively, few enough to not be crowded.
7. In the Twin Cities area there are a lot of Hmong people. It's awesome!
8. We are the state with 10,000 lakes. We have no trouble finding a lake if we need one.
9. It contains Minneapolis, which has a great park system.
10. We are the home of stores like Target and 3M.
11. We have lizz. >:(
12. Our summers are warm enough to be enjoyable, but not hot to the point where it's unbearable.
13. Shoveling makes our arms strong!
14. Our cold weather reduces the number of pansies in our state. Past a certain age, at least. It even got our old principal and his wife to leave! :D
15. No earthquakes, or at least any we can feel.
16. Same with hurricanes.
17. We grow a ton of sugar beets, which is where the USA gets the bulk of its sugar, believe it or not.
18. There's a time of year where we have a lot of hills with a nice layer of ice. They are really, really fun to slide down. A bit dangerous, sure, but that's what makes it fun!
So, what do you guys like about where you live? Just wondering.
