USA's Drunkest Cities

[CactusCarlos]

Milwaukee comes tops in America's 40 drunkest cities, published by The Daily Beast, followed by Fargo, San Francisco, Austin and Reno. The average adult in Milwaukee consumes 12.76 alcoholic drinks each month, 7% of all its people aged over 18 years are alcoholic, while 21.9% are binge drinkers. 3.9 people per 100,000 in Milwaukee die from alcoholic liver disease.

While the majority of people suffer no harm, and even perhaps derive some benefit from moderate drinking, many of us loosen the reigns too much during the New Year celebrations. The number of people ending up in emergency departments of hospitals skyrockets, the incidence of bar fights rises dramatically, as do alcohol-related traffic accidents in virtually every country in the world during this date.
