A recent WalletHub study ranked 182 of the nation’s largest cities based 
on residents’ happiness, using factors such as income, mental 
well-being, physical health and social connections.

“Research shows that having more money only increases your happiness 
until you’re making at least $75,000 per year — anything more you earn 
likely won’t have an impact,” WalletHub analyst Chip Lupo said.

For its income metric, WalletHub used $75,000 in annual income as a 
benchmark and measured the share of households in each city earning more 
than that amount.

The study found the five happiest cities in the U.S. are:

Fremont, California
Bismarck, North Dakota
Scottsdale, Arizona
South Burlington, Vermont
Fargo, North Dakota
Other cities that ranked highly include Madison, Wisconsin; Portland, 
Maine; and Columbia, Maryland.
