I clicked through to see what methodology was used to determine this. Doesn’t seem to be one . . .

“Interesting that so many of these are landlocked states.”

Well, here in the utter Hell of a “landlocked” state, all I know is that when I think of any number of coastal Blue states such as Massachusetts or California, my normal sunny outlook turns dark.
More likely, like so much of the stuff that makes it way into print, the entire foundational premise of this “study” is total bullshit.

I am so glad Oklahoma is on that list. It just gladdens my heart to feel this will keep many undesirables from moving to the only RED STATE. lol
Tornado's,earthquakes,torrential rains, and all in the same day. Cougars, bobcats that come into the neighborhoods and look in your patio doors, bad. Rattlesnakes, tarantulas, copperheads on the golf courses, not a nice round when that happens. Guess that about covers our depressing life style.

Ah, that's too bad.
You missed out on "The 20 Best Moments in Women's Health", which, it turns out includes Katie Couric's colonoscopy.
Rumor has it the doctor announced that he could see Russia from there.
And the there was the "8 Reasons Sex Is Better After 50", which somehow neglected the most important reason of all:
Your vision is shot. ;-)

Maybe you should tell the people on the Mississippi Gulf Coast that Katrina didn't hit some other state.
To: Dr. Sivana
except Nevada. Strange. I think Nevada is depressed because dingy hairy is their senator.

Mostly union states. I’d be depressed if I didn’t live in a right to work state.

The does appear to be a bias in favor of the East and West coasts. If you can't find widespread depression in California these days, you just aren't looking all that hard. Between the inland cities with 30% unemployment rates and the Zoloft-besotted housewives of suburban L.A., it's kind of a target-rich environment.
Here in New England, we've got legions of unemployed fisherman, loggers, construction workers as well as a thousand colleges and universities filled with a million kids racking up hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt with only the slightest hope of ever finding a job. Besides, they're still mostly teenagers and that's the Golden Age of Angst, right there.

Right.
And I wasn’t the one who advanced the “landlocked” pattern theory. In fact, I satirized it.

I already did, but am happy to repeat the performance.
See Post #42. That exact same, pungent descriptor.

Vegas? People in the other 49 have no idea that Nevada isn’t just Vegas. Far from it.
But we in the northern Nevada of conservative towns, friendly people, political non-correctness, big skies, spectacular mountains and lakes, picturesque ghost towns and deserts and THE LARGEST GOLD MINES IN THE FREAKING WORLD WITH JOBS GALORE are very happy to fly under the radar of the rest of the nation.
