Turns out that Las Vegas is not the only “sinful” city in America.
Vices and bad things take place all across the country – although not all “sins” are evenly distributed.
In order to identify the darkest corners of America, WalletHub compared more than 180 U.S. cities across 39 key indicators of evil deeds from violent crimes per capita to excessive drinking to adult entertainment establishments per capita.
The key indicators ended up comprising seven individual ranks – anger & hatred, excesses & vices, greed, lust, vanity and laziness – which, in turn, make up the overall rank.
While Las Vegas is not the only “sinful” city it does reign supreme, according to WalletHub. The city, aptly known as “Sin City,” is the most sinful in the country.
