For the second year in a row, Houston found itself near the top of an undesirable study of cities across the nation.
WalletHub set out to determine the happiest cities in America based on each city’s emotional and physical well-being; income and employment; and community and environment.
Unfortunately for H-Town, they were found near the bottom of these rankings, making them one of the unhappiest cities in America.
Out of the 182 U.S. cities listed, Houston came in at No. 151.
According to CultureMap Houston, Houston ranked No. 128 in emotional and physical well-being; No. 152 in income and employment, and No. 170 in community and environment.
Dallas and Fort Worth fared a little better, coming in at No. 124 and No. 125, respectively.
The three happiest cities, according to this study, are all in California: Fremont at No. 1, San Jose at No. 2, and Irvine at No.3.
Plano was the highest ranked city in Texas on the list, coming in at No. 17.
