Indiana included on list of ‘America’s 10 worst states to live and work in’
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Indiana was included on a list of “America’s 10 worst states to live and work in.” Indiana was named the 7th worst state to live in and work in on CNBC’s annual list.

I see you joined just a few days ago.
I hope you like it here.
Used to live in Indiana. While I enjoyed some things about that part of my life, sometimes to the point of nostalgia, I'm glad I moved out. The state felt like a shadow of its neighbors.
