If taxpayer dollars are seen as an investment into the state, New Hampshire residents are getting the best return.
"It was surprising that the top ten states include both no-income tax options and relatively high-tax states,” WalletHub analyst Jill Gonzalez told Yahoo Finance. “It's not just one or the other. Florida contends with Colorado in this report." Gonzalez added that despite New Hampshire residents paying the second lowest taxes in America — at $2,300 — they also “benefit from quality government services. The state is safe, it has high quality health care services and a strong economy. In short, New Hampshire residents get the most bang for their buck."
Education as a metric refers to considerations like the quality of the public school system, projected high school graduation rate and so on, and infrastructure and pollution would refer to things like quality of roads and the average commute time.
