I used the similar Missosology Big 5 Ranking formula to determine which state is the most powerhouse in the 2010s decade:
Here are the Top 15 states who garnered the highest scores from 2010-2019:
1st Place California 1150
2nd Place South Carolina 1140
3rd Place Tennessee 770
4th Place Texas 760
5th Place West Virginia 740
6th Place Alabama 730
7th Place Oklahoma 700
8th Place Kansas 690
8th Place Maryland 690
10th Place Missouri 680
11th Place Illinois 670
12th Place North Carolina 620
13th Place Georgia 590
14th Place New York 550
15th Place Nevada 530
California cemented its dominance at Miss Teen USA but with a small lead over South Carolina. South Carolina's performance at Miss Teen USA was their best to this decade unlike in the 1980s where they have zero placements and in the 1990s only 3 placements (one of them ended up winning Miss Teen USA in 1998). The biggest surprise was West Virginia, they made their comeback in 2005 then 2 consecutive Top 3 finishes and handful of placements gave them their best showing in 2010s decade.
