Most Stressed Out U.S. Cities

     Are you living in a city? Are you complaining that you are always tired and never get any sleep because you are so stressed out? Well you are not alone.

     With common factors such as traffic, crowds, noise, grime, and crime, cities are generally not perceived as oases of calm. And the residents of these cities are effected in so many ways such as fatigue, depression, insomnia, heart problems, even suicide.

     So which city’s residents are the most stressed out?

     According to an online study by mattress-maker Beautyrest ; Los Angeles Internet users were the most likely to mention that they “can’t sleep” or are “tired.”  But it is Las Vegas that is the worst-off when it comes to taking a break overall. The overall runner-up is Miami, followed by Austin, Atlanta and Durham.

   The research fallows the foot prints of internet users and their searches online of 50 keywords related to sleep, physical and mental health, then the results are adjusted according to the city population to make a fair comparison.

 And even though the New Yorkers searched or mentioned “stressed” more than the residents of any other city, New York didn’t even break the top 20.
