Fayetteville: The most stressed city in North Carolina?

A recent study from WalletHub shows that Fayetteville has the most stressed residents in all of North Carolina.

The study used data sets such as average weekly work hours and unemployment, divorce and suicide rates to compare more than 180 American cities, including the 150 most populated cities and at least two of the most populated cities in each state.

“Where you live can play a big role in how stressed you are,” WalletHub analyst Cassandra Happe said in a news release. “When moving, it’s important to consider how a certain city may impact your mental health – not just your financial opportunities.”

Here are some statistics from the study.
