What do you think is the most under-appreciated state in the U.S.?

It'd take too long to type out all the names, so we'll just forget the poll.

My vote goes to Delaware. People forget about it because of its small area, but it's a haven for banks and other financial institutions because of its attractive tax law.

Next?

That state, I forget which one, but it's the one where lots of people live in the city and very few live out in the country. Oh, and it has grass.

Seconded. Everyone assumes it's nothing but a toxic waste dump, but they've never seen anything but Newark. They forget about all of the businesses (particularly pharmaceutical) we have, and how much of our federal tax money gets redistributed to poor states that are ironically mostly inhabited by republicans who are against redistribution of wealth.

without doubt, NJ is the most underappreciated of all the states.

only connecticut has a higher income / capita than NJ, NJ is the pharmaceutical capital, Dow Jones, Merril Lynch, NY Times, ATT, Lucent all have their main facilities in NJ to name just a few. without question NJ has surpassed Philly for economic power and will soon pass up NY. by NJ i'm really referring to a 60 mile diameter centered around Edison. go 30 miles north, south, east and west from edison. take that population, # corporate presences, medium size businesses and add it up and ONLY NYC surpasses it, and even that is getting questionable at the rate of growth NJ is seeing.

nj gets the smallest percentage of federal money back of any state in the US and has obviously because of the per capita income, one of the highest rate of money being sent to the fed.
