According to a new report from personal finance website WalletHub, traveling around the tri-state area might not be as bad as meets the eye.

Indiana ranked the highest at third overall. The Hoosier state ranked in the top five for lowest auto maintenance costs. According to the report, Indiana also received high marks for having low insurance rates and good quality roads.

Ohio ranked 10th overall due to low insurance costs, infrastructure and parking access.
