The real estate website, areavibes.com, just released an article that lists the most boring states in the country.

The website used the criteria below to come up with the top-ten:

  • % of Population Over 65 (higher is more boring)
  • % of Households With Kids (higher is more boring)
  • % of Married Households (higher is more boring)
  • Population density

Based on those factors, the 10 most boring states are:

10) Maine

9) Oklahoma

8) South Dakota

7) Nebraska

6) Montana

5) Arkansas

4) Iowa

3) Kansas

2) Utah

1) Idaho

Do any of these surprise you?

I grew up in Nebraska and yes it was pretty boring, but every time I go back I notice improvements. Omaha is a fun city to visit and it's close enough that you could make a weekend out of it. Check out the Old Market if you go.

I also lived in Iowa for four-years and was fortunate enough to reside in the Okoboji area. If you love boating, fishing, drinking, and eating you'll love the Iowa Great Lakes.

Both of these locations are full of young, single people who are down for a good time.
