We’re 47th! Go, Texas!
Texas, whose motto is: Thank God for Mississippi!, came in 47th in a ranking of safest places to live.
The WalletHub study compared various safety indicators across all 50 states, examining data on assaults, mass shootings, thefts, murders, traffic fatalities, workplace injuries, climate disasters and more. Texas came in 47th, just above Oklahoma, Louisiana and Mississippi.
And that didn’t even count the fact that Texas has 157 kinds of snakes and 151 of them can kill you. It also did not include “Hold my beer and watch this” moments, but I think we’d have taken first place in that.
However, we did take First Place in the number of uninsured citizens. Thanks, Greg Abbott!
