North Dakota Ranks #1 in Best States for Millennials
2 Jul 2019
North Dakota ranks #1 among all states in the best states for young adults, according to a recent study by MoneyRates.com. The study focuses on where 20- to 24-year-olds have the best shot at thriving in today's economy.
“We are excited about this ranking that acknowledges the many opportunities for young adults in our diverse business community,” Commerce Commissioner Michelle Kommer said.
North Dakota was found to be the top state to live as a young adult or millennial, followed closely by two other nearby Midwestern states, Iowa and Nebraska. North Dakota has become something of a magnet for young adults, as it has the highest proportion in the 20 to 24 age group of any state.
