“Sin cities” of America
Forbes often publishes its lists of the best
hotels, the most interesting destinations and the richest people, but now they
went further – the new rating is devoted to the deadly sins – the editors tried
to find out which of the cities in the US is the most sinful one.
So, seven sins and seven cities where the sin has
reached its full flower. In fact, there are just 5 cities, because Memphis
managed to “win” in 3 “categories”.
Lust – the embodiment of this sin is Denver ,
Colorado.
Avarice – the winner was chosen by the amount
of the individual fortunes per capita and it’s San Jose
, California. Envy – when it comes to the love
for the belongings of the other people, then Memphis
,
Tennessee can boast the highest crime rates in the country.
Wrath – to judge which city is full of wrath
they found a place with country’s highest murder rates and it’s Detroit
, Michigan.
Gluttony – some can say, that it’s a problem of the whole America, but
Memphis is on the top again.
Sloth – once again, Memphis. Now it’s the
laziest city in the USA
. How do they know? Too much TV, fatty food and little time spent
for sport.
Pride – take care of your look is a respect to
yourself, but to pay too close attention to the image is vanity. Salt Lake
City
have the largest amount of plastic surgeons per 100,000 people.
