There are a lot of factors that can increase stress at work: Demanding bosses . . . being understaffed . . . tight timelines . . . and being in the state of Texas.
There's a new study out on the most- and least-stressful cities to work in, and Texas dominates the most stressful list.
The analysis considered eight main factors, including hours worked per week . . . commute time . . . single-income families . . . income growth rate . . . lack of health insurance . . . and crime rates.
In the end, Houston was the most stressful, followed by Arlington, Texas . . . Dallas . . . Memphis . . . Las Vegas . . . Corpus Christi, Texas . . . Fayetteville, North Carolina . . . Fort Worth, Texas . . . Moreno Valley, California . . . and Modesto, California.
That's five Texas cities in the Top 10 . . . and there are 10 in the Top 30.
The LEAST stressful city to work in is Madison, Wisconsin, followed by Fort Collins, Colorado . . . Fremont, California . . . Minneapolis . . . Providence, Rhode Island . . . Lincoln, Nebraska . . . Portland, Oregon . . . Seattle . . . St. Paul, Minnesota . . . and Boise, Idaho.
So BOTH of the Twin Cities made the Top 10.
If you're curious, New York City had the longest average commute at nearly 80 minutes. And Clarksville, Tennessee, had the longest workweek at an average of 41 hours.
