To come up with a hybrid ranking that takes into account both regulatory environment and entrepreneurial activity, I simply added the rankings assigned by the Small Business Survival Committee and Cognetics for each state. The lower the score, the higher the composite ranking.The top 10 and bottom 10 Using that computation, here's the top 10:
1. Nevada
2. Florida
3. Texas
4. Alabama
5. (tie) Virginia, Arizona
7. Tennessee
8. Colorado
9. South Carolina
10. Georgia
Close behind: New Hampshire, Delaware, Maryland, Utah
And the bottom 10:
50. Iowa
49. Maine
48. New Mexico
47. New York
46. Montana
45. North Dakota
44. Nebraska
43. Vermont
