Best: Mississippi stands out for its low cost of living, allowing residents to retain 49% of their income post taxes and living expenses. However, this comes at a price, including poor education and a struggling economy.

Worst: Despite its affordability, Mississippi lags significantly in women’s health, leading to fatalities from heart disease, breast cancer, and diabetes among women. This stark contrast underscores the state’s urgent need for healthcare reform.
