Happiness in the western states while sadness in the southern states. Must be the nice weather :) While the map doesn't show it by county, I remember a NY Times article doing the same thing and Buchanan County, VA is the saddest place in the United States. I'm mentioning this because I went there for a month on a Habitat for Humanity trip many years ago and can confirm the levels of sadness found there. But on a more seriousness note, we're used to seeing demographic and economic data being put on maps, why not psychological data as well?
