Yes it does topped by NY, NY and California, why is TX such a concern for you? Seems number three ignores the top three. How many people live in your state vs. TX?? 9036 deaths!!!

People make choices in life and choose to live where they are, you made the choice to live in your state and pay the price for living there. People are moving to TX for a better opportunity, you don't like it, don't have the maturity to understand it, or to admit you are wrong, a true waste of time. Hope you grow up before it is too late
Quality Of Life by State 2020
Quality of life is a measure of comfort, health, and happiness by a person or a group of people. Quality of life observes everything such as physical health, family, education, employment, wealth, freedom, environment, and safety.
To get a better understanding of which U.S. states have the best quality of life, U.S. News & World Report considered a wide range of factors and ranked every state for each one.
Each of these categories included more specific aspects. Health care looks at access to health care, affordability, and quality. Education looks at the quality of preschools and K-12 schools and levels of higher education. Economy looks at GDP growth, migration into the state, new businesses and more. Infrastructure gauges the quality of bridge, public transportation, and more.
Based on this study, the ten states with the highest quality of life are Washington, New Hampshire, and Minnesota.
1. Washington
Washington state has the highest quality of life in all 50 states.

Oh no where's Texas?
Maybe you should have the maturity to use actual data?
Awesome, quality of life, where is California on that list, the fifth largest economy in the world? What is the liberal ideology and goal?
The hardest thing for many people to do is admit when wrong...
Republican ideal and goals:
Based on the 2018 survey, Louisiana was ranked as the worst state to live. The state ranked worst in the nation for the opportunity and ranked 49th out of 50 for education. It ranked in the bottom 10 in other areas.
The next worst state as determined by this report was Mississippi, which ranked 50th in the nation in health care. It also ranked 49th in infrastructure and opportunity.
Worst States To Live In 2020
yeah. we're watching you Trump disciples deny you're wrong every day...
Tell that to the 6.6 million NEW Job holders, the 58 million 401k holders, the African Americans who couldn't find a job during the Obama booming economy, the shareholders in companies getting record dividends so not needing as much SS. Yes, your partisan, biased liberal rhetoric defies logic, common sense and the facts all because of liberal indoctrination and 24/7 attacks diverting from the Biden/Harris resumes
I'm not sure Biden possesses the faculty to determine true from fiction - he just reads the teleprompter.Is there any time Biden doesn't lie.
