Not surprisingly (at least to me), Colorado residents scored the highest on the physical health index, according to the annual Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index released this week—a ranking that's partially a result of the state having the lowest percentage of obese residents in the country. Colorado is also ranked No. 2 overall as the state where residents report the best sense of overall well-being behind only Hawaii.
