Top Ten Smartest States, 2010

Using U.S. Census Data, the Kauffman Foundation created a weighted score reflecting four different education-level statistics for each state: the percentage of the population (age 25 and older) that has less than a high-school degree, some college, a Bachelor's degree, or a Master's or professional degree. The organization's state-by-state rankings reflect those weighted scores.

Rank	State
1.	Massachusetts
2.	Maryland
3.	Colorado
4.	Connecticut
5.	Vermont
6.	New Hampshire
7.	Virginia
8.	Minnesota
9.	Washington
10.	New Jersey
