SAN ANTONIO — You're as cuddly as a cactus and as charming as an eel, San Antonio residents!
That is according to a new study from Finance Buzz, which looked at a lot of factors to determine which of America’s largest cities are the Grinchiest in the country.
The study took into consideration things like the amount of holiday decoration shops, Christmas tree lots, gift shops and food banks per 1,000 people. They also added in the amount of folks that volunteer for good measure, and San Antonio came up way short.
"The percentages of San Antonio residents that volunteer (24.6%) and donate to charity (43.1%) are among the 10 lowest in the country," says Finance Buzz.
