根据新的盖洛普民意调查,夏威夷州连续第七年位居整体福祉榜首。在整体福祉方面排名最高。
该研究基于对2018年全年所有50个州的115,000名成年人的调查 - 使用这五个因素来计算0到100分的分数:
职业生涯:喜欢你每天做的事情并且有动力去实现你的目标
社交:在生活中拥有支持性的关系和爱
财务:管理您的经济生活,以减轻压力和提高安全性
社区:喜欢你住的地方,感到安全,并为你的社区感到自豪
身体健康:有足够的健康和足够的能量来完成每天的工作
夏威夷在该研究的五个得分因素中排名第一:职业,社会和经济福利。夏威夷在身体和社区福祉方面也名列前茅。
怀俄明州,阿拉斯加州和蒙大拿州紧随夏威夷,成为整体福祉最高的州。
有趣的是,虽然居民在夏威夷更幸福,但企业并非如此 - 根据WalletHub 2018年的一项研究,这是最糟糕的经营状况之一。

The study — which was based on surveys with 115,000 adults in the U.S. across all 50 states over the entire year of 2018 — used those five factors to calculate scores on a scale of 0 to 100:
Career: liking what you do each day and being motivated to achieve your goals
Social: having supportive relationships and love in your life
Financial: managing your economic life to reduce stress and increase security
Community: liking where you live, feeling safe and having pride in your community
Physical: having good health and enough energy to get things done daily
Hawaii ranked number one in three of the study’s five scoring factors: career, social and financial well-being. Hawaii also ranked highly in the physical and community well-being factors.
Wyoming, Alaska and Montana followed Hawaii as the states with the highest overall well-being.
Interestingly, while residents are happier in Hawaii, businesses aren’t — it’s one of the worst states to do business according to a 2018 study by WalletHub.
‘Erosion in social and career well-being’
West Virginia ranked last for the 10th year straight.
Other states near the bottom were Arkansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, and Tennessee.
