Here Are the Absolute Worst Things About Every State
There are pros and cons to every single place in the United States, from having a really cool roadside attraction or great weather to having ridiculously high taxes or pollution. It’s your call what you value most. But Thrillist decided to find the one key area in each state that is basically the worst thing about it.
If you disagree, don’t shoot the messenger here — unless you’re in South Carolina, as apparently that’s a fairly popular past time. But feel free to debate in the comments.
Stick up for your state, people!

They’re one of the few states to raise the smoking age to 19, but apparently this measure is working about as well as putting a fish on a bicycle.

The air in Los Angeles is thick with smog and the egos of countless celebrities, but apparently the air also sucks in Bakersfield, Modesto, Sacramento, and Fresno.
