Philly the Most Depressing Place to Live in the U.S in 2011. What are people in Philadelphia searching for on Google? Apparently the word “depression.” According to Google Trends and psychcentral.com, Philadelphia is the most depressed city in America, and Pennsylvania the most depressed state (note, this is a trend search and not a scientific study). From psychcentral.com:
“Sadly, if you’re a resident of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, more people from your city type in these terms more often than in any other city in America. This suggests that Philadelphia residents take the honor for the Most Depressing Place to Live in the U.S. in 2011. And Pennsylvania tops the state list as well for the most depressing state to live in. Sorry Pennsylvanians.”
Also of note, New Jersey is the third most depressed state.

It’s no secret that megalopolises New York City, Chicago, and Los Angeles have robust LGBT life — and we’ve even heard tell of little queer hoods like the Castro and P-Town. This isn’t that list.
By Matthew Breen
There’s the official census with information on same-sex couples as a percentage of the population, then there’s our accounting of the gayest places in the USA — and we know the twain shan’t meet. But do we really need another article telling us that the homos gather in West Hollywood and Hell’s Kitchen? That Northampton, Mass., is still Lesbianville, USA? (Don’t get us wrong, we love those places.) Instead, in our third annual accounting of the gayest places in America — according to our totally accurate if decidedly subjective criteria — we look at the per capita queerness of some less expected locales.
