As of 2008, what has the State of Texas the lowest while the State of Minnesota the highest in the USA, with the rest of the nation in between?

I just wanted to bring this one back on top and give a hint at the same time.

The "lowest" meaning "worst" the highest meaning "best". I think I should have inserted this in my question.

After a Google search I found something that fits the description -- but it's from 2005 & based on 2003 data:

Health insurance among adults

quote:

According to the study [by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation], the states with the lowest rates of uninsured adults included Minnesota at 8.3%, Hawaii at 9.8% and Delaware at 10.2%. The states with the highest rates of uninsured adults included Texas at 30.7%, Louisiana at 26.4% and New Mexico at 26%.

Nice research Prof but not it. Your numbers suggest that the higher the
" % ", the worst it is. I am looking for: the lowest score fits the worst.
The answer is associated with three digit numbers.

I thought it was just a matter of 'insured' versus 'uninsured' in how the question was worded. Mozart, you always manage to come up with nice stumpers that defy Google searching. Keep it up.

When Dogspit sees how bad Texas is doing, he will want to move to Texas. (Last hint)

"The National Average Credit Score" is the answer I was looking for.

Texas ranks worst at "666" and Minnesota best at "721". You can see how your own state is doing on the chart Here. ( Read them from left to right).

The entire USA scores 692. Credit scores range from 300-850. Anything above 700 is considered good to excellent.
