New York City has topped a ranking of the coolest cities in the United States and Canada, scoring 89.11 out of 100. The result reflects its broad range of cultural and leisure options, though the ranking measures amenities and events rather than residents’ overall quality of life.

Canada Sports Betting assessed 150 cities across six categories: music and sporting events, coffee shops, breweries, museums and parks. Availability counted for 75% of each score and concentration per square mile for 25%; New York had the study’s highest availability score, 98.02, with 171 museums, 2,629 coffee shops, 43 breweries and more than 2,000 parks. Boston placed second overall, followed by San Francisco, Seattle and Washington, D.C.; Minneapolis led midsize cities, while Richmond topped the small-city list.
