It's no secret that young whipper snappers like to live life on the edge sometimes. But how they like to do it actually depends on where they live.

Level Money, an app that helps users manage their finances, took a look at how Millennials, those born in the 1980s or 1990s, spend their hard-earned cash on the "vices" of coffee, liquor and fast food. Using anonymous data from January to June of this year, Level Money found that Millennials are not a "one size fits all" generation. How and where they spend their money differs from state to state. And then Level Money put it all in a handy dandy infographic for our viewing pleasure.

So let's get in to these survey results, shall we? First of all, Level Money found that many of the Millennial coffee drinkers reside on the East Coast, with Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Connecticut containing the MIllennial residents that shell out the most dough for coffee, in descending order. You probably thought Washington, the birthplace of Starbucks, was going to nab the top spot, but it came in at No. 5 (Technically, it tied with Connecticut for fourth place). At the other end of the spectrum, Millennials in Mississippi spend the least amount of money on coffee.

The Millennials that spend money on alcohol are a little less concentrated in one area. Massachusetts makes it to the Top 5 yet again, this time as the state where Millennials spend the most on booze. It is followed by Colorado, New York, Wyoming and Illinois, while Mississippi is once again at the bottom of this list.

Finally, Millennials from three states stacked on top of one another, Oklahoma, Kansas and Texas, buy the most fast food, in that order. The young adult residents of Vermont are apparently the healthiest, spending the least on fast food annually.

What is most shocking about this list is where Millennials spend their money, particularly in the fast food category. Unsurprisingly, Millennials spend most of their money at the institution that is McDonald's, but Chipotle snagged the No. 2 spot, which is relatively new to the fast food game, especially when you compare it with the chains it beat out, Taco Bell, Wendy's and Burger King.

Though states such as New York and California have become famous for their hipster meccas of Brooklyn and San Francisco, respectively, Millennials are indeed spreading out to different parts of the country to cities such as San Antonio, Orlando and Detroit. It's possible that a year from now, the results of this survey could look very different.
