Hehe, mine's not even on the list. Considering this city gets one violent crime a year (car accidents are back up again :P), I'm not terribly surprised.

Not shocked, we're actualy a pretty calm mecca for everyone, except for when the tourists stop short on the subway clogging up traffic and *muttergrumblecurse*.Sometimes, it just doesn't pay to get out of the blanket nest.

Yep, I'm not too surprised. Must be b/c of the endless construction on the Urban Loop, the recently opened ball park downtown, the colossial elephant of a coliseum that was redone in the early 90's amid a bunch of protesting (apparently not enough to kill the bond referendum that paid for it, though) and those who can't let go of Nov. 3, 1979 (day of a shootout involving racist folk) and had to create a group to relive it.
*sigh* Some days I really wish I wasn't part of the planet.

The closest city to me is Colorado Springs, #91. I looked back at the article and how they made these calculations was measuring people with high BP, combined it with workplace deaths and traffic congestion statistics.
I understand how Co. Springs made it - I-25 is a freaking nightmare up there.Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not even sure about the universe.

Wasted money on a cross-lake ferry that couldn't earn a profit, skies almost as cloudy as Seattle, but also one of the most philanthropic cities....Testing

Aaack! I live in city #4?! I mean I can kind of understand it--the Ravens suck, the Orioles suck, crime is ever present, affordable housing is becoming a scarce commodity and 695 is a nightmare at rush-hour.
But....Washington, DC is only #25? I call BS. Their traffic is ten times worse, affordable housing is non-existant except for the poorest neighborhoods and no-one seems to have a plan to curtail gentrification, plus they have Congress, the White House, lobbyists out the wazoo, and one of the highest per capita rates of attorneys in the whole nation! How can they only be #25? They do have that darn Tai Shan though......but is one adorable panda cub enough to cancel everything else out? I think not.

Living in Detroit is a total nightmare. Constuction everywhere, housing is expensive especially in the Metro area. People drive like assholes, a corrupt mayor, and more. The best thing is, we have the Red Wings and we have Canada near us.The Grand Galactic Inquisitor hears all and sees all.

The reason we have the most road rage is because of those f*cking *ssholes who have to drive too f*cking slow, and then I've got some *sshole in a giant f*cking truck shoved up my *ss, and I'm going over 10 billion f*cking potholes, and DON'T EVEN get me started on 170th street, parking on Whyte, or the finding a godd*mned address in Mill Woods.Quoth CanadaGirl View PostInteresting...
