How stressed is your city?

Regardless of where in the country they live, Americans have one thing in common when it comes to stress – they consistently report experiencing more stress than they believe to be healthy. They also report work as one of the top stressors in their lives. Here’s how stress levels vary in major cities across the country, according to the American Psychological Association’s Stress in America report. [Photos: Thinkstock]
