“Coming in dead last on the 200 cities measured: Boston, for the second year in a row. Boston has company. Worcester came in at No. 199, second up from Boston’s position in the 200th slot. Boston and Worcester have basically been battling it out for last place in Allstate’s rankings since 2014. Springfield makes a poor showing, too, at No. 196.”

Don’t get too excited by the news Rhode Islanders…Providence was the 194th ranked city and the state is typically the 49th ranked state.  Given some on my experiences in the Ocean State, 49th might be a generous ranking.
