Aug. 10, 2023 – InsiderMonkey notes Wisconsin has one of the lowest alcohol tax rates in the country, leading to lower retail and wholesale prices.
Some of the drunkest counties in the country are located in America’s Dairyland. The state has seven of the 10 U.S. cities with the highest alcohol consumption per capita (“for each person”).
InsiderMonkey concludes Milwaukee.. “with its sprawling beer gardens..” is the drunkest city in America in 2023. Milwaukee topped lists for excessive drinking in 2022 and 2021, too. Per InsiderMoneky, the drunkest cities after “Brew City” are Minneapolis (Excessive Drinking Rate: 23.5%), Boston (Excessive Drinking Rate: 23.1%), Buffalo (Excessive Drinking Rate: 22.8%), Chicago (Excessive Drinking Rate: 22.7%), Pittsburgh (Excessive Drinking Rate: 22.5%), New Orleans (Excessive Drinking Rate: 21.9%), Sacramento (Excessive Drinking Rate: 21.6%), Portland (Excessive Drinking Rate: 21.4%) and Austin at #10 (Excessive Drinking Rate: 21.4%).
At least at the top of this particular survey, cities have one thing in common: harsh winters. But a sprinkling of warmer U.S. cities among the top 10 list might debunk a theory alcoholism is more prevalent in the colder states.
