In your opinion, which state totally STINKS? And we mean that literally . . . which one SMELLS the worst? Someone ranked all 50 states by looking at four different categories of stink . . .
They factored in how dirty the air is . . . how many landfills there are . . . dental health, as a measure of bad breath . . . and population density to estimate how much B.O. you have to deal with. Here are the ten smelliest states in America . . .
1. Maryland.
2. California.
3. Florida.
4. Delaware.
5. Massachusetts.
6. Alabama.
7. New Jersey.
8. New York.
9. Pennsylvania.
10. Mississippi.
North and South Dakota tied for the most pleasant-smelling states, followed by Wyoming, Idaho, and Wisconsin.
