Dec 5, 2022, 4:05 PM

There’s only room for one “Sin City” in the U.S., but that doesn’t mean cities outside of Las Vegas aren’t also a little sinful themselves. Denver happens to be one of those…

WalletHub recently compared 182 cities, including 150 of the most populated cities in the U.S., as well as two of the most populated cities in each state.

The cities were compared across 38 metrics for seven dimensions for 2022; Anger & Hatred, Jealousy, Excesses & Vices, Greed, Lust, Vanity, and Laziness.

Denver is the number seven most sinful city in the U.S., according to the data.

Here are the top 10 most Sinful Cities in the U.S. in 2022:

  1. Las Vegas, Nevada
  2. St. Louis, Missouri
  3. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
  4. Houston, Texas
  5. Atlanta, Georgia
  6. Los Angeles, California
  7. Denver, Colorado
  8. Chicago, Illinois
  9. Baton Rouge, Louisiana
  10. Phoenix, Arizona
