There are a total of 435 congressional districts in America. Gallup/USA did a year long study to show the well-being of different states and districts...and found...Indiana Congressional District Number 2 ranked 423rd for our "well being". We were also dead last for "healthy behavior" and 417th in "life evaluation", which is how you see your life now, when compared to five years from now.
I was pretty shocked, I actually really dig this area and wouldn't want to move anywhere else. The study is based on the World Health Organization's definition of health which includes the state of physical, mental and social well being. You can see the "raw data" for yourself by going to http://www.ahiphiwire.org/WellBeing/ then just type in your zip code, click on show congressional districts and hit generate report   |
