Arizona is being lauded for its diversity in a new study.

WalletHub compiled a list of the most and least diverse states in America. The website states, "In order to determine where idea and identity exchanges have occurred at the highest level — and where the population is relatively more homogeneous — WalletHub compared the 50 states across six key diversity categories."

According to the list, Arizona is the 10th-most diverse state in America. The state placed eighth overall for cultural diversity and sixth overall for household diversity.
