Where Americans Are Living Well

Forbes Map: Where Americans are Living Well

If you want a good household income then don't move to the middle of America. Forbes are using Google Maps to display a number of lifestyle factors across the USA, all of which suggest that there is an area down the middle of America from Montana and North Dakota in the north to Texas in the south that is under performing compared to other states.

The map displays a number of population, education and business related indicators to show where Americans are living well. To select a category, use the drop-down menu at the top of the map.

The data is shown in the form of a heat map with red indicating a higher score. The data for the map is provided by ZoomProspector.com.
