Is Your State Small Business Friendly?

Are you a small business owner? Do you know if your state is small business friendly? Luckily, Thumbtack.com can easily let you know.

Thumbtack.com recently released its 2012 Small Business survey. This survey evaluates each state based on topics that affect small businesses such as regulations, licensing, tax codes, and employment.

Only four states received an “A+” as the friendliest states for small businesses. Our congrats to Idaho, Oklahoma, Texas, and Utah for being ranked as the most friendliest states.

Since I’m sure you’re wondering, the least friendly states were California, Hawaii, Rhode Island, and Vermont, which each received an “F” overall grade.
