How's your well-being?
Your physical health? Emotional health? Working environment?
A new study says Colorado is the second best state in the country for well-being. The only state to rank higher? Hawaii.
That's according to the Gallup-Healthways well-being index.
After interviewing more than 353,000 Coloradans about their lives, the group put Colorado at No. 1 for physical health, No. 3 for work environment, No. 5 in the country for emotional health and life happiness and No. 6 for healthy behavior.
The only thing Coloradans weren't happy about? Basic access. In that category, Colorado ranked 12th in the country.
