This New Study Comes From Sleephelp.org To find out more you can go HERE After looking at the list, it seems they may want us to move to Arizona.
According to Sleephelp.org, they used the following criteria to compile their list
- Average one-way commute time
- Average annual days with precipitation
- Relative collision likelihood
- Percentage of workers who drive
- Diversity of times that people leave for work
With all of that in mind you look below and you will find the Top Ten Most Stressful Commute Cities Followed by the Top Ten Least Stressful ones!
If your looking for MORE than the top 10 you can see the ENTIRE list of 200 cities and see where they fall at the end of this post.
