Mar. 29th, 2008 12:09 pmMost Sinful U.S. Cities Named
"American cities are falling from grace in each of the seven deadly sins. Forbes.com compiled lists of the some of the winners (or losers, depending on your perspective); they might just surprise you.
If you’re looking for lust, forget Paris. Head west to Denver. And while Los Angeles and Miami might have a high demand for cosmetic procedures such as facelifts, tummy tucks and botox, Salt Lake City took top honors as the vainest city in America.
A predictable guess for America’s greediest city might be New York, but San Jose, Calif. takes the lead with the help of Silicone Valley, which has the most personal fortune per capita. Search engine Google alone has created several thousand stock-option millionaires."
Let's see...
Seattle gets fourth place for "Lust" and "Envy", and third place for "Greed"
Portland ties with San Antonio for second place in "Lust"
San Diego gets tenth for "Gluttony", and ties with Miami and San Jose for "Pride"
Not only does San Jose get tied for tenth in "Pride", but is in FIRST place for "Greed"
Los Angeles gets eighth place for "Greed" and "Pride" (ties for "Pride" with New York City and Virginia Beach)
Riverside, California gets fourth place for "Gluttony"
Las Vegas gets third place for "Sloth"
Oakland gets sixth place for "Wrath"
Dallas gets seventh place for "Greed"
Chicago gets tenth place for "Envy", Phoenix gets sixth place.
Salt Lake City gets fifth in "Lust", seventh in "Envy", and FIRST in "Pride"
Denver gets FIRST in "Lust" and fourth in "Greed",
