    In the overall freedom rankings, New Hampshire rated number 1, followed by Florida and South Dakota, while New York was dead last, with Hawaii 49th and California 48th. For personal freedoms, Nevada came tops followed by Arizona and Maine, with Wyoming 48th and Idaho 49th

    Florida ranks number 2 for overall freedom? Not sure how much I trust the Cato institute’s methodology.

      Cato is a very conservative\ libertarian group. The fact that they put Texas last for personal freedom seemed noteworthy to me.

      They are 100% biased.

      You can see their methodology. Texas came last for personal freedom, but their corporate freedom gave then a top ten result
