美国十大悲伤城市 三座来自“阳光州”

2011-12-05来源:环球网

  It might be bathed in glorious sunshine throughout the year - but new research has revealed the Floridian city of St Petersburg is the saddest place to live in the US.

  Having a Guinness World Record for 768 straight days of sunshine did nothing for the state's fourth largest city - deemed to be a hotbed for suicides and anti-depressant pill poppers.

  The unemployment hotspot of Detroit, Michigan, unsurprisingly followed close behind, with third place in the "Frown Town" stakes going to Memphis, Tennessee.

  Three of the saddest 10 cities hailed from the "Sunshine State".

  In contrast, Honolulu, Hawaii - the birth place of US President Barack Obama - is the happiest place to live.

  Manchester, New Hampshire, was the second best place to reside, with Fargo, North Dakota, in third.
