Seattle Most Literate City in the Country

A USA Today article details a study that revealed Seattle is the nation’s most literate city. With all that rain keeping you inside, and all that coffee keeping you awake all night, I would think their ranking shouldn’t be a surprise. Minneapolis, Washington, D.C., Atlanta and San Francisco also placed in the top five. The article explains that “America’s Most Literate Cities 2005, a ranking based on the culture and resources for reading in the 69 largest U.S. cities, aims to rate cities not on whether their citizens can read, but whether they do.”
