TEXAS – This one hurts for the state of Texas.

Out of the top 10 ‘most hated’ states in the U.S., Texas is coming in as the second ‘most-hated,' according to an analysis by lifestyle website Best Life.

New Jersey took the top spot, and Texas was followed by California.

Best Life says its findings were gathered by calculating the percentages of the population that have recently moved out of each state, analyzing a Gallup poll of which citizens felt the most pride in their home states, and the findings of researcher Matt Shirley, who took a poll from his 320,000 Instagram followers on which state they hate most.

The results of the analysis provided a final score of Best Life’s hatred index, where the higher the number, the more hated that state is.

Alaska, California, New Mexico and Oklahoma are the states that hate Texas the most, according to BL’s findings.

For Texas, the numbers were as follows:

  • Population change compared to the U.S. average: 2 percent
  • State pride: 68 percent
  • States that hate it: Alaska, California, New Mexico, Oklahoma
  • Population of states that hate it:46,297,568
  • Hatred Index: 758

I like how Oklahoma has one state that hates it, Texas. But the magnitude of that hatred is enough to rank Oklahoma as the 4th most hated state overall.

Alaskans get pissy that Alaska is very rarely shown to scale on maps, thus making Texas much closer to Alaska's size than in reality.

That, and our music's better.

Yeah. I thought I remember seeing that graph.

Florida hating Florida remains the best part.

New Jersey hates everyone. 

The only positive about New Jersey is not pumping your own gas.

Of course Alaska looks small, it’s cold up there. Shrinkage.

They have music?  What is it? Whale bone flutes and the wailing of the lonely?

We lead the country in hating Nebraska.  That's a god damn badge of pride right there.  It's also quite accurate.

Personally, I have a pretty strong hatred for Minnesota too, but it's more of a hatred of Minnesotans.  Minnesota itself is alright with me.  I think most of Iowa doesn't even really think about Minnesota though, as the state's population centers are mostly 2-3 hours south of the border.
