The Least and Most Stressful Cities Index 2021 compares and analyses 100 global cities for indicators related to stress, according to VAAY.com.
“The cities were chosen for their size and significance, as well as for their availability of reliable and comparable data,” the report said.
“The study consists of 4 broad categories – governance, city, finance and citizens’ health – each made up of individual stress indicators that determine how stressful a city is to live in.”
