    According to a new survey, these ten cities are full of stressors.

    Poll results from the American Psychological Association (APA) indicate that stress levels in America continue to climb.

    According to the American Psychological Association (APA)  63% of Americans cite the future of the nation as a significant source of stress. This ranks higher than financial stress (62%), work (61% percent) and even violence and crime (51%).

    While overall results indicate politics are a major source, stressors tend to vary by city. New survey results from  JustGreatLawyers.com questioned 2,700 citizens across the United States to find out which cities are the most stressed.
