Would you consider the city that you live in to be clean? When you walk the streets, do you see trash piled along each corner, or is garbage separated from residential areas? 25 cities have been singled out as being exceptionally clean based on the percentage of residents reporting on the presence of trash throughout the city.
According to a list compiled by Yahoo Finance, the cleanest city in all of Minnesota is Minneapolis. This city ranks as the 18th cleanest city in the entire country. 91% of Minneapolis households reported seeing no trash throughout the city. Yahoo Finance mentioned that:
"The Minneapolis–Saint Paul statistical area is one of the most prosperous regions in the state of Minnesota."
Here's what Yahoo Finance had to say about compiling the data to discover the cleanest cities across the country:
"To compile our list of America's cleanest cities, we used data from the Census Bureau's American Housing Survey (AHS) to calculate the percentage of households with trash or junk half a block from their residents. Based on this data, we picked top 25 American cities with the highest percentages of households reporting no trash."
