Reasons To Be Unhappy [Mixed Reviews By People Who Don't Live Here]

Tennessee ranks 15th in the nation for children born to unmarried parents, which may have something to do with us having the 6th/9th highest teen pregnancy rate in the nation. Just maybe.

We also are the state with the 10th highest number of completed foreclosures [via Post Business]. After all that, no wonder we’re the 10th Most Unhappy State.

But take heart, because Tennessee has the lowest debt per capita of any state, and we have SPIN Magazine’s 8th Best Independent Record Store… Two sure reasons to smile.

    Worth noting, another TN record store, Goner Records, in Memphis, was also in that SPIN lineup as number 10, as well as Shangri-LA records (Memphis, too) mentioned in the Honorable Mention.
