Where you live in the U.S. could determine your level of well-being.
That's according to a Gallup-Healthways study, which looked at several basic categories of well-being for employees across the country in its "State of American Well-Being: 2016 State Well-Being Rankings."
Data were analyzed to see which states do better or worse in the five elements of well-being, which the study defined as follows:
|-
Purpose—liking what you do each day and being motivated to achieve your goals
-
Social—having supportive relationships and love in your life
-
Financial—managing your economic life to reduce stress and increase security
-
Community—liking where you live, feeling safe and having pride in your community
-
Physical—having good health and enough energy to get things done daily
The Well-Being Index is calculated on a scale of 0 to 100, where zero represents the lowest possible well-being and 100 represents the highest possible well-being.
