In a recent analysis of social media and search behaviors, Los Angeles Internet users were the most likely to mention that they "can't sleep" or are "tired."

The analysis, which was conducted by mattress-maker Beautyrest, tallied activity around about 50 keywords related to sleep, physical health and mental health for one year. It then adjusted for city population to make a fair comparison.

Los Angeles may sleep least, but Las Vegas is the worst-off when it comes to needing a break overall. The overall runner-up is Miami, followed by Austin, Atlanta and Durham.

New York didn't even break the top 20. But that doesn't necessarily mean the city's reputation for non-stop activity isn't well-deserved. New Yorkers mentioned or searched for "stress" more than the residents of any other city.
