america’s most lustful cities: #1, denver

Denver has a good reputation (in my opinion) for several things.  First, we’re one of the fittest cities in the country.  Also, we’re one of the drunkest.  Now, (perhaps as a corollary to that last bit), we’re also the most ‘lustful’, at least based on some data from ACNielsen.

Residents of these metros enjoy vigorous sex lives–at least their condom and contraceptive purchases at grocery and drug stores indicate as much.

Research firm ACNielsen provided us with a per-capita index of over-the-counter contraceptive purchases in major U.S. markets for the past 52 weeks. The average index was 100.

Denver topped the list with an index of 289, which translates into 189% more contraceptives sales than normally expected for a market its size. Other cities that ranked in the top 10 were Seattle, Washington, D.C. and Salt Lake City. Metropolitan areas one might expect to see ranked, like New York, Los Angeles and Las Vegas, had average or below average indexes.
