Michigan’s 10 Drunkest Cities: Is Kalamazoo Drunk Enough? [List]

Michigan’s 10 Drunkest Cities: Is Kalamazoo Drunk Enough? [List]

Our friends at RoadSnacks.net are at it again. The last we heard from them was Michigan's most redneck city: Sturgis of course. Well, now they've rated Michigan's drunkest cities!

Let me start by saying how disappointed I am at the results. Sure, Kalamazoo is in the top 10, but we have to strive to be No. 1!

I thought we had more time but we can't wait any longer. We have to drastically change our lifestyle to accommodate more inebriation. We'll have to give up some of the luxuries like food, water, shelter and sex... OK — food, water, shelter.

Criteria Used:

In order to rank the drunkest cities in Michigan, RoadSnacks had to determine what
criteria defines someone who drinks a lot. Using Yelp and Sperling's Best Places, this is
the criteria RoadSnacks used:
  • Number of bars and pubs per capita
  • Number of wineries per capita
  • Number of liquor stores per capita
  • Each city's drunk related tweets within the last week
  • Each city's divorce rate
For geo-located tweets, RoadSnacks measured the following raw number of tweets
that came from within a city¹s general are: #Drunk, #Party, #Beer, #Wine
and #Cocktails. Note: For the sake of getting reliable numbers, RoadSnacks counted places within a city's border, as well as within a short driving distance.
