Florida is the fourth most fun state in the country, according to a study by WalletHub.

The site "compared the 50 states across 26 key indicators of a jolly good time that won't break the bank."

These categories ranged from movie costs, to accessibility of national parks to casinos per capita.

Florida ranked fourth overall, third in entertainment & recreation and 11th in nightlife.

California, New York and Nevada were the only states more fun than the Sunshine State.

And in case you're wondering, Delaware, Mississippi and West Virginia rounded out the bottom three.

Florida performed particularly well in most restaurants per capita, most marinas per capita, most golf courses & country clubs per capita, and most fitness centers per capita, ranking in the top three for each category.

However, between the Orlando theme parks, all the beaches, and Publix sandwiches, ABC Action News ranks Florida as the most fun state in the union.
