Rampant Exclamations

While it may, in fact, always be sunny in Philadelphia, it turns out the city’s actually unfriendly, unstylish, and just plain full of ugly people. Seriously. Someone did a study, so it must be true!

PHILADELPHIA (Reuters) - Philadelphia is home to the least attractive people in the United States, a survey of visitors and residents showed on Friday.

The city of more than 1.5 million people was also found to be among the least stylish, least active, least friendly and least worldly, according to the “America’s Favorite Cities” survey by Travel & Leisure magazine and CNN Headline News.

About 60,000 people responded to the online survey — at www.travelandleisure.com — which ranked 25 cities in categories including shopping, food, culture, and cityscape, said Amy Farley, senior editor at the magazine.

For unattractiveness, Philadelphia just beat out Washington DC and Dallas/Fort Worth for the bottom spot. Miami and San Diego are home to the most attractive people, the poll found.

They go on to say it doesn’t mean the people in Philadelphia are unattractive. Just not particularly attractive. So I guess a better title would be ‘It’s Always Plain-Looking in Philadelphia’.
