If Wyoming, the next one on our list of best states for forensic science technicians had higher employment rates than the one it currently has, it would have ranked higher than this. They have quite a great balance between wages and expenses, at least in terms of forensic science technicians. They even ranked sixth-highest when it comes to wages, which is a rare statistic for Wyoming because it is popular for being an affordable state.
