America's 8 Ugliest Cities

If you live in one of these metropolitan areas, your hair care and skin care products have to work overtime

No. 2: Dallas, Texas

Sorry, Texas, but quite a few of your cities made undesirable lists. Dallas was perhaps the star of the show, having been named the third least attractive, the fourth fattest, the seventh highest in ozone pollution (run for your skin!), and one of the top 10 least fit and most stressful cities in America -- by five different sources. But Dallas wasn't alone; despite being glamour girl Beyonce's hometown, Houston came in second with a tendency toward bad hair and bad teeth (according to our surveys) and even more pollution -- plus it's also pretty close to Lyle Lovett's hometown. And we won't even get into the honorable mentions: San Antonio, Austin, Corpus Christi and El Paso.

The ranking science behind this article is a little silly but it was still a fun read. I can see where people might get offended if they city they are from and/or love is on this list but then it's important to remember that beauty is subjective and often times totally random. It's importnat to note that some of the world's most beautiful actresses and models come from cities that are considered "Meccas of ugly." Nothing in here is valid...pure entertainment.

Interesting -- but I think most would agree that the bigger cities would, by default, have these rankings. I'm just sayin'...

Stpd article. I'd like to see the pictures of the people who wrote it...I think that that should be taken into consideration (and yes, I can happily submit my headshot as proof that not-ugly ppl think this is stpd.)

My daughter was born on Mardi Gras Day in Mercy Hospital which was swallowed up by some megamedical conglomerate prior to Katrina. We lived in an apartment two blocks from Lake Pontchartrain. I shudder to think what happend to the buildings that housed the Boeing engineers on loan to the space program. The Nawlins I knew probably disappeared long ago. The city was a jewel compared to our next posting--Huntsville, Alabama. Yikes!.
