Hmm, both Texas and Florida have no state income tax ... wonder how that fits in.

I remember thinking Texas roads are strikingly well maintained, and Florida was pretty good. California (where I live) is surprisingly bad considering the kind of weather we hvae here. Anyone know where California was in the rankings?
