Best:
Massachusetts is best known for being the healthiest state in all of the US due to a number of factors. The Bay State, according to the United Health Foundation’s annual raking, was found to have one of the lowest obesity rates in the country, besting other states, including Hawaii, which once held the title of healthiest state for five years in a row. It also has the most number of mental health providers per capita, not to mention, the highest health insurance coverage of all the states in the US.
Worst:
It’s a good thing that the state has a good number of mental health therapists available since traffic, most especially in the city of Boston, can drive anyone crazy. The city is known to have the worst traffic in the United States, with people spending at least 14% of their travel time stuck in a jam.
Another thing that sucks in Massachusetts? NO HAPPY HOUR. And it’s been that way since 1984.
Because of the rise in drunk driving incidents in the state, the government found it appropriate to limit the sale of alcohol. The laws in place prevent establishments from coming up with gimmicks promoting the sale of alcohol, hence, goodbye happy hour. Customers can’t order more than 2 alcoholic beverages at once, which means that you can’t buy your buddies a round of drinks to celebrate that Red Sox or Patriots win.
Bummer.
