A map has been released showing the best places to live in the US. The map has sparked various interpretations, with some outlets focusing on the most desirable cities, states, and counties, while others have used the data to highlight different factors such as cost of living, allergy concerns, and safety in the event of a nuclear war. The map's release has also been associated with a ranking of the worst states to live in, although its connection to other reported maps, such as those related to the Mideast conflict, is unclear.
