Santa Barbara: One of the Happiest Places in the US



"Results from a study of geotagged tweets have determined that Santa Barbara, California is one of the happiest places to be in the United States. According to a recent report, “researchers scored more than 10,000 words on a positive-negative scale and measured their frequency in millions of tweets across the country, deliberately ignoring context to eliminate experimental bias. What emerged was significant regional variation in happiness by this calculation, which correlates with other lifestyle measures such as gun violence, obesity and Gallup’s traditional well-being survey.” See more at: http://www.santabarbaraview.com/santa-barbara-one-of-the-happiest-places-in-us42525/
