Let’s face it, sticking to a New Years resolution is no easy task. But it is a good feeling to start a new year with new goals and just try to achieve new things.
There is a city here in the state of New Jersey that is really bad with New Years resolutions.
If you had to make a wild guess, which city in New Jersey is the worst in the country when it comes to New Years resolutions?
The answer is Newark in New Jersey.
Wallet Hub recently published a list of 182 cities across the country titled “The Best and Worst Cities of 2022 to Fulfill Your New Years Resolutions.” There were several New Years resolution categories that gave the overall ranking. Those categories included Health Resolution, Financial Resolution, School and Work Resolution, Bad Habit Resolution, and Relationship Resolution.
Newark has a terrible rating across the board.
- Ranked 116th in Health Resolutions – Gym Gets Boring After 2 Weeks, Can You Blame Newark Residents?
- Ranked 180 in Financial Resolutions – Saving isn’t easy with bills and all, but we’d all love to stick with it.
- Ranked 182 in School & Work Resolutions – Studying is Hard.
- Ranked 159th in Bad Habit Resolutions: If eating or drinking is the “bad habit,” we could have told you the resolution wouldn’t last.
- At 171st in Relationship Resolution – This one shouldn’t be difficult. How can anyone screw this up?
The people of Newark, NJ, could never stick to a fitness resolution. According to the Wallet Hub, Newark is tied for 179th with the “Highest Percentage of Adults Who Don’t Exercise.” That is not a good thing.
The latest fun fact that was shared on Wallet Hub was that “more than 7 in 10 people admit that they have not fulfilled their New Year’s resolutions in the past.” Put me on that list. I have failed many New Years resolutions.
