Every year Orkin comes out with a report on the Rattiest Cities in America. The report came out and…. WE’RE ON THE LIST! Ugh…
New England nibbles and gnaws away at 2 spots on the Top 20 so let’s go! By the way – in case you haven’t figured it out – these are the cities in America with the biggest rat problems.
This was a repeat at #1 for Chi-town. Congratulations! Bravo!!
Rats love that deep dish…
New York, New York!
Up one spot from last year’s rat countdown.
Los Angeles
Even plastic people have rats – this year LA is down one spot from last year. The rats must have moved across the country to NYC.
Washington, DC
Lots of rats in DC. teehee
Washington repeats at #4 for a second year.
San Francisco
San Fran is so expensive! Those rats are getting a serious bargain living there for nothing!
San Francisco was #5 last year too.
Philadelphia
Philly moves up one spot this year. I bet they love the CHEESEsteaks. Sorry.
Baltimore
Baltimore drops a spot from #6 last year. They probably got scared of being dumped on a picnic table in a poof of Old Bay.
Cleveland
Up 2 spots this year. That’s significant. Cleveland is to rats what Florida is to humans this year I guess. Lots of rats retiring to beautiful….. Cleveland.
Detroit
Last year the Dirty D was #8. Soon we’ll have to change that nickname.
Denver
Down one from last year.
Seattle
Same spot as last year.
Minneapolis
Same as last year.
BOSTON!
There we are!! We were #13 last year too. I think Orkin is trying to jinx our teams with the unlucky #. Haters.
Atlanta
Up one spot from last year.
Indianapolis
Swapped places with Atlanta from last year.
Pittsburgh
Holding steady at #16 for a second year.
Cincinnati
Cincy jumps 2 spots this year. So was Cleveland. Uh oh Ohio.
San Diego
Moves down one spot from #17 last year.
Hartford, Connecticut
First time in the Top 20 for Hartford!
Miami
Second year at #20 – Hartford jumped Miami? Yikes.
