By The NumbersHow does Maine compare?
The Maine Heritage Policy Center publishes this
compendium to provide a fact-based look at how Maine
compares to other states and the District of Columbia
in six key areas: demographics, economics, health care,
welfare, education, and tax and fiscal. Maine’s totals and
rankings are provided alongside the New England state
average, rural peer state average, national average, and
the highest and lowest-ranked states for each entry.
Information included in Maine By The Numbers was
obtained from national and government sources. You will
learn in which areas Maine excels, and in which areas
we fall short. We hope you will find this information both
informative and enlightening, and use it to help advance
public policy solutions to achieve necessary reforms.
The 2011-2012 Maine By The Numbers has the answer.
