New Report By A Window Coverings Company Ranks Mesa #1

#1 for what? ...and how did  Next Day Blinds measure up cities for "Early Birds"?     
Top US Cities for Morning People
Which U.S. city is made up of the most morning people?
The team at Next Day Blinds created this study to find out.
OK. Let's shed some light on the data a window coverings company used to create a study to determine the company's rankings of the Best-and-Worst cities for "morning people".
You might never believe this: Mesa ranked first place!
"The early bird gets the worm, or so they say, and this is never truer than when you’re talking about a fast-paced, metropolitan city. The faster pace of life encourages people to wake up, open their blinds, and get moving the moment the sun rises. . ."
HUH? Mesa is a fast-paced metropolitan city where the faster pace-of-life encourages people to wake up, open their blinds, and get moving the moments the sun rises?
Why Mesa ranks #1 so high on the list: The need to commute
39.5% of the population leave for work before 7 a.m.

The report was put together by window coverings company Next Day Blinds using research collected from Yelp and City-Data. To determine rankings of best and worst cities for morning people, Next Day Blinds looked at
  • the percentage of the population who are early morning commuters
  • the number of coffee shops per capita
  • the number of breakfast restaurants per capita
  • the number of gyms with early hours per capita
The best and worst cities for early risers are probably not what you’d expect

But for those who assume metropolises with 24-hour restaurants and gyms with long hours are ideal, think again!
Here’s what Next Day Blinds found out:
The Ten Best Cities for Morning People In the US
Based on the weighted ranking, the best city for morning people is Mesa, Arizona. The number of coffee shops, breakfast restaurants, and early morning gyms per capita were the highest, so the early birds won’t have to worry about long lines for the treadmill or their caffeine fix.
