Stress levels in America have risen in recent years due to economic uncertainty and high inflation. A survey by the American Psychological Association revealed that 77% of Americans feel stressed about the nation’s future, with 73% concerned about the economy. WalletHub’s new study compared over 180 cities across various stress-inducing factors, with Detroit emerging as the most stressed city, with high unemployment, poverty rates, and low median household income. Cleveland and Baltimore followed closely behind, facing financial challenges, high crime rates, and health issues. Boise, Fargo, and Burlington, VT ranked among the least-stressed cities. (Wallethub)
