Feeling like you’re over worked here in the Mile High City?  Well turns out you’re not alone as Denver has been ranked as the 2nd most overworked city for its employees by financebuzz.

The only city listed higher than Denver was Washington D.C. 

Denver was cited as 2nd highest due to it having a high percentage of households with multiple people working full-time jobs and also people having 2nd jobs and side-hustles.

Some other metrics used to determine the cities were the average number of hours worked per week, average commute time and % of active workers that are aged 65+

The top 10 list was as follows:

  1. Washington DC
  2. Denver
  3. Austin, TX
  4. Minneapolis, MN
  5. Dallas, TX
  6. Boston, MA
  7. Salt Lake City, UT
  8. Kansas City, MO
  9. Indianapolis, IN
  10. Baltimore MD
