I am surprise climate was not factored in in determining the ranking of city stress level. For example, there is a heat dome sitting on top of Texas for the last month with high humidity and temperature over 100 degrees with no relief in sight. If that don't stress anybody out, I don't know what else will :)

Poor Cleveland, ranking # 1 . They never seem to get a break ! :( I figured LA would be higher up on the list .:confused:

I can’t access the website. I get an “Oops!…..”

Can someone print the list?

Never been to Cleveland. I am from Memphis which I think has some similarities to Cleveland. I think probably Detroit might be a better example.

I would think a lot of it would have to do with the cost of living, plus the weather, plus things like traffic. Concerning traffic, America needs much better and safer public transportation. I personally hate driving and would rather have other options. Many other nations have this, lots of Europe, China and Japan.

Cost of living. I have noticed the past four years how devalued the American dollar is. A $100 is basically the new $20 and a $20 is a $5. Being afraid of not being able to afford to live in an apartment and living with your parents in your twenties and even beyond or having roommates is stressful. Or renting a place and being afraid the landlord will raise the rent when the lease is up.

Then there is employment, which for 95 percent of people is absolutely stressful, to have to perform at a level and constantly being worried about doing something wrong, or slipping up, or whatever else. Having to deal with the general public at large and knowing now that if you make them angry, even inadvertently, can cause them to post their experiences online and for you to lose your job.

Looking for a job is now a nightmare. Everything is done online. Very few places will take a paper application. So you fill out applications online with a thousand other people and then some robot, not a human sorts it out using some algorithm. To just be able to give up forty plus hours of your week doing some BS to make a Billionaire that much richer. Most people aren’t even living, they are surviving.

Do you feel safe where you live? Crime seems to be an overriding issue. I am from Memphis which has one of the highest murder and crime rates in the United States. But I am not shook going into most of Memphis. My saying is if you are not a problem, there (probably) won’t be a problem. But there are parts of Memphis; as well as a lot of cities, large and not so large which are just awful. Literal gangs, murders, open drug usage. I know from talking with Memphis police that there are neighborhoods they won’t go into unless they are called and have backup. This is just dinky Memphis. How would you like to live where the cops don’t tread alone? That’s stress.

Lastly, because of circumstance last month I was in a tiny town of LeRoy Minnesota. Imagine an upper Midwest Mayberry and you would be mostly right. Town has about 2000 people if that, less than my high school. Got to drink and talk to the locals. Guess what, they have the same problems and stress as anyone else. Having children, paying bills, keeping a job, keeping it all together. Some of the town uses alcohol and yes, drugs (didn’t see anything illicit but one guy talked about crashing his car drunk and coked up, and THC-9 was for sale legally (which will get you high). People cope in different ways. Some find religion, others find intoxicants, others find family, others find belief. Most people have something to hold on to in this roller coaster of existance. Life is hard!

Climate is a factor we've dealt with when we need to. For this survey it's all about the fiscal issues mostly and what is going on in the "re do" of America as many call it.

This topic is on my programming I listen to, radio, not the lying tv, and talk about the jobs people are taking to make some extra cash, delivery, uber and jobs like these as are non english speaking people delivering food, I get that a lot, guys from Russia and they stand there and tell me, "I'm Russian".....but no other English. grrrrrrrrr

Y.F. Does this link work?

Memphis is high up there, No. 7 as I think I noticed.

Most of the top cities have very high crime rates.
