A Mission for Michael recently surveyed 3,012 parents nationwide using Cherry Data Signals to rank zip codes across the country to find out which parents are experiencing the most stress.

Two North Texas towns made an appearance.


Frisco came in at No. 10, and Southlake at No. 18.

Per CW33, the study wrote that “few communities in America have grown as quickly as Frisco, Texas. This rapid expansion has brought both opportunity and pressure for families. Demand for child care, schools and youth activities continues to rise as more families move into the area each year.”

Additionally, of Southlake the report said that the city “is known for its exceptional schools and active youth sports culture. Parents often dedicate significant time and energy to academics, athletics and extracurricular opportunities, fostering a highly involved family environment. Keeping up with the demanding pace can feel challenging for many families.”

Scarsdale, N.Y. was named the most-stressed zip code in the nation, because “parents often commit significant time and resources to their children’s academic success, extracurricular activities and future college planning. The community’s strong association with academic excellence creates pressure for families to ensure their children remain competitive,” according to the study.
