Those looking to spend Christmas with friends and family fare well in Florida

Florida is one of the top states where residents are able to spend Christmas surrounded by familiar folks.

Manhattan Mental Health Counseling , a psychological wellness firm, reviewed U.S. Census data to determine which states have the greatest number of people living alone and would likely spend Christmas by themselves.

Florida was ranked 42nd in the country in terms of solo living, with just 13.91% of the Sunshine State’s population living alone. The wellness firm concluded that Floridians are less likely to be lonely on Christmas than most other states.

Florida’s neighbor Georgia was ranked 41st, with only 13.93% of its population living by themselves. Texas was the only other Southern with a smaller share of people living alone than Florida, coming in 45th, at 13.09%.
