According to an unscientific survey in Men's Health Magazine Birmingham, Alabama is the 7th saddest city in America with only 1. Petersburg, FL, 2. Detroit, MI, 3. Memphis, TN, 4. Tampa, FL, 5. Louisville, KY, and 6. St. Louis, MO being more sad.
All this being based on each cities' suicide rates, unemployment rates, a percentage of households that use antidepressants and number of people who report feeling the blue all or even most of the time.
There's a “Blues” index somewhere? Where does one go for information like that, and how do they arrive at a number? Count the number of Muddy Waters CDs sold and divide by PI times the number of earth tone clothes sold?
Sad?
Hey....look around, we're just aware baby!
Fargo, Omaha and Sioux Falls are just fooling themselves!
Sad Cities
