The top eight states on our list are Minnesota, Colorado, Texas, Arizona, Indiana, Virginia, Alabama, and Utah.

The Colorado River is extremely important to the state of Arizona. When other states begin to make noises about threatening Arizona's supply, I think the whole state needs to get involved.

We know a lot of families are moving to Arizona, Texas and Colorado because of (California's) expensive housing market.

The three fastest-growing Western states -- Nevada, Arizona and Utah -- are expected to slow down over the next two years. Still, it is likely that these states will be in the top 10 for job creation yet again this year and next.

I did it in Virginia and Minnesota. I don't think that will be an issue. I think certainly everyone in the nation has been keeping tabs on what Florida is doing over time, and in many cases trying to emulate that.

Colorado is still No. 1, although you have Virginia nipping at your heels.
