According to the personal-finance website WalletHub, people are having a ball in the Grand Canyon State. 

Arizona is ranked 17th out of 2018's Most Fun States in America. That's not too shabby, considering the state is in the top 20.  

The top 5 states are California, New York, Nevada, Florida, and Illinois. You can check out the entire map below...

WalletHub breaks it down even more with 26 key metrics. The data ranges from movie costs to accessibility of national parks to casinos per capita. Here's what's grabbing everyone's attention in Arizona:
