Submission + - These are America's 10 worst states to live in for 2026 according to CNBC 1

CNBC is placing increasing emphasis on Quality of Life, one of the 10 categories of competitiveness in our annual Americas Top States for Business study. It is our annual ranking of every states business climate, now in its 20th year. Under this years methodology, the category makes up 11.6% of a states overall score, up from about ten percent last year.
To score the states for quality of life, we use hard data on factors like crime rates, air quality and healthcare. We also consider the cost and availability of childcare, inclusiveness of state laws, and reproductive rights. Some states offer exemplary quality of life.

you can adjust the panel's angle/height to improve the reduced light yields. and some crops tolerate reduced light fine. those that don't you don't put panels above them. there is plenty of non-farm space.
proper design and installation minimizes wind problems. don't worry, engineers can take care of this. even in tornado country. and if something gets destroyed, you replace it. panels ain't made of gold.
