Checks out.
My most hated is the state of boredom. Although Jimmy Carr defines boredom as unappreciated serenity.
On the subject of the most hated state, which are the worst states in which to drive?
According to this source, they are California, Rhode Island, and Mississippi.
The source in part has this to say...
Rhode Island, California, and Mississippi are consistently ranked as having the worst road conditions in the US, based on factors like road roughness, poor condition percentages, and safety. Rhode Island often leads with the highest percentage of roads in poor condition, while California suffers from extreme pavement roughness and heavy congestion. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
How is it not Massachusetts?
Most hated state? How about Massachusetts for men without a prenup getting divorced. God have mercy. This guy I know in Indianapolis, the only thing his Bostonian wife didn’t milk him for, unwittingly, of course, was his frequent flyer miles.
Dressed to kill 364 days a year but showed up in rags for her court appearance and Judge Massajudy fell for it hook, line and sinker.
How is it not Massachusetts?
Only to Colts and Lakers fans.
MA is always #1 or nearly so in K-12 education, colleges, educated work force, high-paying jobs, infrastructure, economic development, tech...
"You can't make someone listen to reason if they aren't willing to think"-- Ray Bradbury, Fahrenheit 451

It’s 6th Shooter, so LOTS of other people think so too.
NOBODY gets it wrong more than Shooter!!
Question to my fellow Coolerites.
Would the political party which dominates in a city or state influence your decision to move there?
Ask this, because at one time in my life, asking this question would be answered with a resounding "no way". However, given today's political polarization my guess is many of us would answer this question differently.

Most people don't actually chose where they live, it's more a just a function of where you were born and where you end up for a myriad of reasons, none of which have anything to do with local politics.

UncleMark Agree that most people don't either have the luxury to choose where they live, or simply opt out of moving.
Nevertheless, people are moving. Some are even moving back home which surprised me according to this study.
