Perhaps the answer is unsurprising given the state's location and atmosphere, which is perhaps why Hawaii is the only state to rank in the top five consistently since Gallup has measured daily stress in its tracking survey -- since 2008.
The second least-stressed state is Louisiana, followed by Mississippi, Iowa and Wyoming.
The states reporting the most stress were West Virginia, Rhode Island, Kentucky, Utah, and then Massachusetts. More detailed data for this study can be found on Gallup.com.
