From WalletHub, states in which residents are the happiest:

• #1: Utah (is generally at or near the top of these lists year after year
• #2: Minnesota (I believe this is also true for Minnesota; often at/near the top of these lists)
• #3: North Dakota (color me surprised)
• #4: Hawaii (not surprising -- what is surprising, is that ND outranked Hawaii)
• #5: Colorada (often near the top of these lists)
• #6 - #10: Idaho, Iowa, Nebraska, South Dakota, and California
• Texas: #29 (I find that hard to believe; the list must have included lopsided number of ranchers living along Mexican border)
• #51 - #41: West Virginia (#51), Alabama, Kentucky, Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisiana, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Michigan, Missouri, New Mexico. 
• Despite Chicago, Illinois smack-dab in the middle at #25, just above New York at #26.
