Phoenix is named the sweatiest city in America, with Houston, TX, Miami, FL, San Antonio, TX, and Fort Myers, FL in the top five. Trailing behind is Little Rock, AR at 25, Philadelphia, PA at 50, Detroit,MI at 75, and San Francisco, CA at 100. "The ranking is based on the average U.S. male/female height/weight, and the average high temperature and relative humidity levels for 2002 in each of the cities during June, July and August. The sweat level was analyzed based on the assumption that the individual was walking for one hour."[PDF, 92 KB, 4 pgs. See page 3 for the full list.]
