Shreveport in northwest Louisiana is the third unhealthiest city in the US, according to WorldHealth’s report. In terms of amenities, the city doesn’t offer many. The hot and high humidity, the risk of natural disasters, and a poor economy with a high unemployment rate are all contributing factors to unhappiness in the city. On top of that, it is also a highly unsafe city, with shooting, home burglary, and theft of personal property being a constant threat to civilians.
