Which Capital Region Towns Ranked the Laziest in All of New York?

There are a couple of Capital Region towns on the new list of Laziest Towns in New York by Zippia.com.

They took data from 170 places in New York with over 5,000 people, and they ranked each place from 1 to 170 for each of the criteria with 1 being the “laziest”.

Here is the criteria -

• Lowest average hours worked
• Shortest commute time
• Fewest workers per household (Labor force divided by the number households)
• Highest unemployment rate
• Fewest adults with a college degree

And, the laziest town in all of New York is one that I have spent a lot of time in!  And, you know what, as much as I love you, Salamanca, you're pretty freaking lazy!
