A newly released study by Transparency International finds the United States less corrupt now than it was in 2011. According to the survey’s rankings, the U.S. is the 19th least corrupt country in the world this year; in 2011, the U.S. ranked 24th.

“The Corruption Perceptions Index scores countries on a scale from 0 (highly corrupt) to 100 (very clean). While no country has a perfect score, two-thirds of countries score below 50, indicating a serious corruption problem,” writes the group that focuses on corruption.
