13th Place – New York

Guess what? The Big Apple just got a bit juicier! It’s been crowned as the 13th most educated state in the US, according to WalletHub’s ranking. While it may not have cracked the top 10 in every category, New York did manage to snag two impressive fifth-place finishes. So, let’s raise a glass of apple cider to this brainy state that never sleeps!

In the grand ranking of American intellect, this state proudly boasts a fifth-place position, not only for its top-notch universities but also for its impressive percentage of graduate or professional degree holders. And where, pray tell, might these brilliant minds reside? Unlike Oregon, the answer is hardly surprising – they’re nestled within the bustling, vibrant heart of New York City or comfortably tucked away in its charming, suburban outskirts.
