Do you live in one of the unhappiest cities in the country?

We all strive to be our happiest selves, but depending on where you live, that could be easier for some than for others. While happiness is subjective, it can also be influenced by a number of factors like job security, cost of living, mental health and even weather.

WalletHub compared nearly 200 cities around the country, including at least two of the most populated locales in every state, to determine which cities are the happiest and unhappiest in America. Among the list are three cities in Colorado, including two ranking among the least happy in the U.S.:

No. 79: Colorado Springs
No. 88: Aurora
No. 96: Denver

Of the Colorado cities on the list, Denver ranked as the unhappiest, coming in at No. 96 overall and earning low marks in both the income & employment and community & environment categories. It did, however, earn above-average marks in the emotional & well-being category. Colorado Springs, on the other hand, ranked highest on the list, earning average marks in all categories.

These are the 10 happiest cities in America:

Fremont, California
San Jose, California
Irvine, California
Sioux Falls, South Dakota
Overland Park, Kansas
Lincoln, Nebraska
Madison, Wisconsin
Scottsdale, Arizona
San Francisco, California
Huntington Beach, California

To determine its rankings, WalletHub compared 182 across three key factors: emotional & physical well-being, income & employment and community & environment. these factors were then evaluated using 29 relevant metrics, including depression rate, life-satisfaction index, adequate-sleep rate, share of adults with mental health not good, life expectancy, food-insecurity rate, poverty rate, job security, unemployment rate, commute time, separation and divorce rate, hate-crime incidents per capita and ideal weather, among many others.
