The holiday season is when many people indulge in rich foods, creamy alcoholic drinks, and decadent parties. Some people have self-control, while others give in to their vices.
A recent report by WalletHub names the most sinful cities in America for the year 2022. The personal-finance website compared over 180 cities in the U.S., including the 150 most populated cities, based on the seven sins: anger and hatred, envy, vices, greed, lust, vanity, and laziness.
The report found that San Francisco has the lowest share of obese adults, while Detroit has the highest, with 49% of its population being obese.
Memphis has the highest violent crime rate in the country, while Irvine, California, has the lowest.
