For a country that features the word United so prominently in its name, the U.S. is a pretty fractious place. We splinter along fault lines of income, education, religion, race, hyphenated origin, age and politics. Then too there’s temperament. We’re coarse or courtly, traditionalist or rebel, amped up or laid-back. And it’s no secret that a lot of that seems to be determined by — or at least associated with — where we live.
Now a multinational team of researchers led by psychologist and American expat Jason Rentfrow of the University of Cambridge in the U.K. has sought to draw the regional lines more clearly, literally mapping the American mood, with state-by-state ratings of personality and temperament.
Which State Matches Your Personality?
Using personality test data from over one million people, researchers have identified three distinct personality regions in the country. Here, each state is colored by the region it belongs to and shaded according to how strongly its personality matches that profile.
Want to know where you belong on this map? Click "Take the Test" and answer the 10-question survey to see which state most closely matches your personality. Results are not recorded or reported to any third party.

We're well-adjusted, our temperaments perfectly suited for the climate, the terrain, and the culture here.

There are big chunks of NM (Taos, Santa Fe) that are made up of moonbats who were too batshit crazy for CA.

Did anybody else get "Galt's Gulch"?

I'm aware of Taos and how whacked out it is, but after seeing some of the shit that goes on in Berkeley, I'm convinced there is no upper limit to the amount of batshit crazy that exists in Commiefornia.

I got Vermont.

I got the same problem as Chris--the damned button wouldn't work for me.
