Magazine Finds Nation's Angriest Cities
POSTED: Tuesday, August 15, 2006
A study conducted by Men's Health magazine has found that Orlando, Fla., ranks No. 1 on a list of the angriest cities in the nation.
"Orlando has never been a strategic military target, and yet the folks there are furious," the magazine said.
The magazine looked at the percentage of men with high blood pressure, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and FBI rates for aggravated assaults, as well as workplace deaths from assaults and other violence.
Those numbers were compiled by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Traffic congestion data were also a factor.
Orlando was joined in the top 10 by three other Florida cities -- St. Petersburg, Miami and Jacksonville.
