Look! The place we choose to live is not in the bottom 10 on someone's list. Woohoo! Apparently, it's about time. From the reaction we had gotten on the post about Grand Junction being top 10 worst places in Colorado to live, I thought I would try to change the mood.

USA Today claims that Colorado is not one of the 10 worst states to make a living. The information is supplied by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistic.

By looking at such factors as average wage, state sales tax, workplace injury reports, unemployment and others, it has been determined that Hawaii, Oregon, Maine, West Virginia and Vermont are the most difficult states to earn a living.

At least we are not bottom 10! Let's celebrate!
