## Story

Every state in America is now at least partially reopened as a result of the decline of new Covid-19 cases nationwide. But some states continue to maintain more restrictions than others.

In order to determine the states with the fewest coronavirus restrictions, personal finance website WalletHub compared the 50 states and the District of Columbia across 14 key metrics. The data set ranges from whether child-care programs and restaurants have reopened to the presence or absence of a “shelter-in-place” order.
