Top Cities for Vanity
Men's Health magazine is charting vanity in US cities, with help from SimplyMap.
What did they find? The Sunshine State, with a long history of going to great lengths to look good, tops the list of America's Vainest Cities, with Tampa in the top spot and Miami ranked eighth. Here is a word on the methodology used, which included several variables from SimplyMap:
We added up each city's rates for cosmetic procedures (American Society of Plastic Surgeons), Botox users, folks who go for dye jobs, and people who will spend anything to look younger (Experian Marketing Services). We also tallied sales of at-home hair dyes, teeth whiteners, and shapewear (SimplyMap), as well as per-capita rates of cosmetic dentists, plastic surgeons, and tanning salons (American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, AMA, and SimplyMap). Finally, Foursquare told us where people check into those salons most often.
Most Vain:
1. Tampa, FL
2. Plano, TX
3. Atlanta, GA
4. Las Vegas, NV
5. Dallas, TX
6. Pittsburgh, PA
7. Houston, TX
8. Miami, FL
9. San Francisco, CA
10. Providence, RI
